Two more insights.
In the shell I get dumped into on boot, I can enter the command "/sbin/
vgchange -a y' and
it finds my logical volumes.
If I then exit it tells me it connot find server-server1
Then I had a memory revalation !!!!
In a previous life, I had a logical volume on this machine with the
volume group "server" and
logical volumes "server1" through "server7". So where is this old info
lurking on the disk so I
can change it.
