You _could_ boot a qemu/kvm/user-mode-linux which only has access (ro) to /dev/sdb2 and run "vgs -v" inside that to get the UUID of the older volume group. Something like the following: blockdev --setro /dev/sdb2 qemu -boot d -cdrom livcd.iso -hdb /dev/sdb2 ...wait for qemu to boot and then run "vgs -v" in a terminal and note down the UUID. exit from qemu blockdev --setrw /dev/sdb2 vgrename the_uuid_you_found new_vg_name I haven't tried this myself but it should work.
