[lug] Accessing FC5 drive on new FC9 install

Hello!

I've searched the archive and I found a thread on this before.  My
apologies, but I have not been able to take that information and then
gain access to my old drive.  I'm missing something so I'm hoping you
can help me out.

The previous thread is here:

Anyway, both my old (FC5) and new (FC9) drives were part of VolGroup00
but my old drive did not have any LogVol as far as I could tell.  And
I didn't have VolGroup01 as it seems that person had.  So, after much
ado, I eventually removed my old FC5 partition from VolGroup00 and
added it to VolGroup01.  But I'm still unable to access it.

Hopefully, I can just paste this output from /sbin/lvm and you can
piece together the rest so I can finally mount my old data.  /dev/sda
is my new (FC9) drive, /dev/sdb is my old (FC5) drive:

What is the next step(s) I need to access my old drive on /dev/sdb2?


Thanks!
