The response
Code:
mount: special device /dev/mapper/VOLA-root does not exist
I did make one change and not reboot as I'm essentially running on a live cd. However, I was able to use the lvm command to display my logical volumes.
Any more clues?
Hmm, is 'mapper' the name of your VolumeGroup? Mine looks like so:
Code:
LV Name /dev/vg_ubuntu/lv_root
First, lets try activating the LVM group
Code:
sudo vgchange -ay vg_ubuntu
# then mount like this
sudo mount /dev/vg_linux/lv_root /mnt/work
The -ay in the vgchange command basically means 'available yes', which lets the kernel know your LV is there.
