Somehow, it does again.
this morning, the box booted clean, and LVM found all logical partitions
and mounted them properly.
I did vgcfgbackup, rebooted to be sure, it rebooted w/o errors.
I dont know why - I did nothing that I thought 'THIS WILL FIX IT' My
only WAGs are that all those fdisks,
(now including sfdisk - which apparently is more correct) fixed
something that was broken. Or maybe
one of the many LVM tools fixed it on a *scan, *display, etc.
One of these days Ill actually use a new drive to back stuff up, rather
than filling it with more toys & music.
