After that I could boot and all seems to be fine. but running vgscan I get root@uhu:/home/ecki/backup/uhu# vgscan Reading all physical volumes. This may take a while...

I can't check, because lvdisplay gives the same output as vgsc= an above. I have a line filter =3D [ "r|/dev/cdrom|", "r|/dev/hda[1,6,7]|" ] in my /etc/lvm/lvm.conf Any suggestions, how to get a clean volume group?
