Thanks! Some progress:

# lvscan
  inactive          '/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00' [86.22 GB] inherit
  inactive          '/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol01' [1.00 GB] inherit
# pvscan
  PV /dev/hda3   VG VolGroup00   lvm2 [87.25 GB / 32.00 MB free]
  PV /dev/hdc2                   lvm2 [72.44 GB]
  Total: 2 [159.69 GB] / in use: 1 [87.25 GB] / in no VG: 1 [72.44 GB]
# mount -t ext3 /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 /mnt/fc5
mount: special device /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 does not exist
