Still no luck though.
Well, that's an LVM volume. You have to run first pvscan (or lvm
pvscan) and see what physical volumes are created (let's hope you'll find
/dev/hdc2 there) and what volume groups are available on that physical
volume. After that you have to run lvscan (or lvm lvscan) and see what
logical volumes are available (assuming that the current running kernel
supports the LVM version of that volume).
Running pvscan rull generate the and output alike with the
following:
pvscan -- reading all physical volumes (this may take a while...)
pvscan -- ACTIVE PV "/dev/hdc2" of VG "Volume00" [33.59 GB / 0 free]
pvscan -- total: 1 [33.60 GB] / in use: 1 [33.60 GB] / in no VG: 0 [0]
So let's say the volume group you're looking for is the one from
/dev/hdc2 and is named "Volume00". After that you'll have to run lvscan
and see what logical volumes are created there:
The output of the "lvscan" command will be something like:
lvscan -- ACTIVE "/dev/Volume00/LogVol00" [1 GB]
lvscan -- ACTIVE "/dev/Volume00/LogVol05" [4 GB]
lvscan -- ACTIVE "/dev/Volume00/LogVol04" [512 MB]
lvscan -- ACTIVE "/dev/Volume00/LogVol06" [11.72 GB]
...and so on. Keep looking for the ones with "Volume00" (or the
name of the volume created on your partition, /dev/hdc2).
After finding that lovical volume all you'll have to do is:
mount /dev/Volume00/whateverthelogicalvolumeiscalled /mount/point/ -t ext3
Let's hope you don't have any other LVM volume groups with the
same name on your computer...
