That error message is pretty clear: you're trying to mount a logical volume
that contains swap.  This is not the droid you are looking for.  Is there
another LV listed in /dev/VolGroup01 or /dev/mapper, maybe something like
/dev/VolGroup01/LogVol00?

BTW: lvm2pv means the partition you are trying to mount is a LVM Version 2
Physical Volume -- the partitions that make up a logical volume.
