[linux-lvm] Ut-Oh! - I need MAJOR help.

["Justin Hamilton" <JHamilton@Earthling.Net>]

Just had my machine lock up after CPU Fan failure.  Anyway, after repairs, a
reboot (and subsequent vgscan's) gives the following response:

[root@Voyager /root]# vgscan -v
vgscan -- removing "/etc/lvmtab" and "/etc/lvmtab.d"

vgscan -- ERROR "vg_read_with_pv_and_lv(): allocated LE of LV" creating
"/etc/lvmtab" and "/etc/lvmtab.d"


How screwed am I?

I've got reiserfs on the LV's, so recovering the data from the LV's should
not be too big an issue.  What I need to know is how to rebuild the VG.

TIA
