Turned out it was even easier. All I had to do was ... nothing. The rc.d
scripts in Fedora 7 automatically scanned for md arrays and LVM volumes.
After booting Fedora 7, the lvm volumes were already there in
/dev/<my-vg-name>/<my-lv-name> (and also /dev/mapper). All I had to do
was add a line to fstab. Sorry for all the bother about something that
turned out to be trivial.

until I finish getting the Fedora 7 partition all set up (it's a MythTV
server). If I run vgscan on it instead, will that make any changes to the
volume that would prevent me from booting back into FC3 and mounting it from
there?
vgscan/pvscan don't change anything on volume group/disk. Just tell a
system about volume group and/or physical volume.
