I recently tried to add an old 30 GB hard drive lying in my machine to my FC5 system.  I was trying to add the 30 GB to VolGroup00.  I failed somehow and now the entire VolGroup00 is inaccessible.  When booting I get a Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!  I think if I removed the offending Uuid from VolGroup00 things would go back to normal.

Here's the output of some lvm commands from the FC Rescue Disk:

I would greatly appreciate any help.  I'm currently unable to get at my data since it was all in VolGroup00.  Please help me if you can. :)
