    Hi,

    I'm still playing with FC3 lvm and like to rename the original names
    VolGroup00 and LogVol0x to something else.

    I tried to rename the LVs and it worked, but even after updating fstab I
    got a kernel panic after rebooting, because it couldn't find the logical
    volumes. I started FC3 disk #1 with 'linux rescue' and renamed the LVs
    back. Everthing is fine again.

    What went wrong here? Why was I not able to reboot?

    Trying to rename the VG didn't work either, because the command
    complained of active LVs. I doubt if this is even possible with only one
    active VG.

    Is there maybe a HOWTO somewhere?

    Oliver.
