As I've stated numerous times in the past, I strongly recommend you not have 
your root file system be an LV.  That's not an official Novell position, but 
mine based on numerous incidents over the years of mistakes being made, and 
having a very difficult time correcting them.  Others disagree, but working in 
technical support has provided me with the unfortunate opportunity of saying 
things like "you don't have a backup of your entire system?  Gee, that's a real 
shame."

This seems a little odd, since you stated in your very first note that the DASD 
volumes were "activated and formatted."  I've only seen this error code when 
dasdfmt had not yet been run on a volume (or LDL was chosen manually instead of 
the default CDL).
