Maybe the text backup file for vgcfgrestore of the lvm config was old/wrong and the volume group is now set up in a different way than it was at creation time of reiserfs. I guess Reiserfs cannot find it's superblock, because it's just not there, because lvm has assembled the logical volume in a wrong fashion. This sounds like a lvm problem to me, at first hand. I guess you have to ask on the lvm mailing list. http://linux.msede.com/lvm_mlist/archive/ Maybe you can run reiserfsck --check directly on a physical device, but before doing this better ask someone who knows where lvm writes it's physical volume data. The superblock may sit at an offset after some lvm header. -- lg, Chris
