Hi Guys!

I tell you my LVM story....

I have add LVM1 capability to my linux box kernel 2.4.36.5.

So I make (whit success) a snapshot of my /dev/VOLHOME/HOMELV! Snapshot's name is SNAPHOME.

Than I restart my linux box.

Now I can't mount /dev/VOLHOME/HOMELV and "vgscan -v" write this messages:

:
:
    /dev/sdb1: size is 3906204687 sectors
    /dev/sdb1: lvm1 label detect
    Locking /var/lock/lvm/V_VOLHOME RB
  Finding volume group "VOLHOME"
    /dev/sdb1: lvm1 label detected
    Found /dev/sdb1 in VG VOLHOME
Snapshot and origin LVs must differ.
Couldn't add snapshot.
    Found /dev/sdb1 in VG VOLHOME
Snapshot and origin LVs must differ.
Couldn't add snapshot.
Volume group "VOLHOME" not found
    Unlocking /var/lock/lvm/V_VOLHOME

I don't know what's happen!

Help me please, thanks Alessandro
