I have yet to find a live CD that will mount a FC3-5 LVM partition.
They all claim the '8e' designation in the partition table is an

works for this?
No idea, but you don't just "mount" LVM partitions. You need to run
vgscan first, activate the volume groups and then you can mount the
logical volumes.
Is there a guide to recovering data from them? So far I've kept
everything critical on hand-configured RAID1 partitions because
I know how to recover data from any single disk that might be left
after a disaster.
I run LVM over RAID1 for the same reasons.
