Anaconda loses ~100 GByte of disk when installing Fedora 12, was "Part of hard disk disappeared..."

Greetings,

I have looked a little more into the system I just installed, so now I am
posting the same issue I mentioned in that other thread, but hopefully in
a clearer form.

I had this 350 GByte SATA disk which had Fedora 9 on it, on several
separate partitions filling the whole disk, called /dev/sdaN and mounted
on:

/
/boot
/home
/mydata
swap

Monday I installed Fedora 12 x86_64 on that disk, accepting all the
defaults. Installation went OK, but I ended up with a disk that (see
command outputs below) has logical volumes containing swap, /boot on
/dev/sda1, / on /dev/sda2, for a total space, if I understand correctly,
of only 250 GB.

What happened and why? Where are those missing ~100 GBytes, and how do I
recover them without reinstalling from scratch?

TIA,
          Marco
