New disk installed and mounted LVM not working

Hi, everyone,
I used parted and mke2fs to create my disk partitions and format them.  
I changed to root with su - then edited /etc/fstab like so:
# vi /etc/fstab
/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 /                       ext3    defaults
1 1
LABEL=/boot             /boot                   ext3    defaults
1 2
devpts                  /dev/pts                devpts  gid=5,mode=620
0 0
tmpfs                   /dev/shm                tmpfs   defaults
0 0
proc                    /proc                   proc    defaults
0 0
sysfs                   /sys                    sysfs   defaults
0 0
/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol01 swap                    swap    defaults
0 0
/dev/hdb2               /mnt/home           ext2     defaults        0 0

I created the directory 
# mkdir /mnt/home

Then I executed the following:
# mount -a

the volumes remounted with no errors. Next I moved my home directory:

# mv /home/user   /mnt/home/user (where user is my login name)

Then I checked that the move was completed and successful by prowling
around a bit in /mnt/home.
 Next I removed the old home directory:

# rm dir /home/user

and then setup the link from /home to the new devic by editing fstab 

# vi fstab
/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 /                       ext3    defaults
1 1
LABEL=/boot             /boot                   ext3    defaults
1 2
devpts                  /dev/pts                devpts  gid=5,mode=620
0 0
tmpfs                   /dev/shm                tmpfs   defaults
0 0
proc                    /proc                   proc    defaults
0 0
sysfs                   /sys                    sysfs   defaults
0 0
/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol01 swap                    swap    defaults
0 0
/dev/hdb2               /home           ext2     defaults        0 0

and mounted it

# mount -a
# ls /home/lesh

everything appeared OK.
Finally a reboot and relogin and I was up in my new home directory.

Problem: LVM doesn't see the volume as initialized.  Checking the man
pages for lvm and all the commands I do not see how to make this play.
Please help me straighten this out.  Either new instructions or a link
to something that explains it in detail.

Regards,
Les H
