How to add hard drive with existing data to LVM Fedora



My system is Fedora 4.0, here is my mount points. I want to add one of
my old
hard drive (in ext3) to the system. But the hard drive I want to add
was
already partitioned and has data I want to preserve. When I try to
mount it, I
always get error:

mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hdb1,
missing codepage or other error
In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
dmesg | tail or so

What should I do? Following are the mount info and partition info:

[root@espresso seagate]# mount
/dev/hda3 on / type ext3 (rw)
/dev/proc on /proc type proc (rw)
/dev/sys on /sys type sysfs (rw)
/dev/devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,gid=5,mode=620)
/dev/hda2 on /boot type ext3 (rw)
/dev/shm on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw)
/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LvHome on /home type ext3 (rw)
/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LvOpt on /opt type ext3 (rw)
/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LvShare on /share type ext3 (rw)
/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LvTmp on /tmp type ext3 (rw)
/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LvLocal on /usr/local type ext3 (rw)
/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LvVar on /var type ext3 (rw)

[root@espresso seagate]# cat /proc/partitions
major minor #blocks name
