Hi,
Thanks for your advice.
This is a dualboot system, Ubuntu/Fedora. I installed Ubuntu first and then Fedora, both on LVM, IIRC.
# fdisk -l
Disk /dev/sda: 160.0 GB, 160041885696 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 19457 cylinders, total 312581808 sectors
Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes

Is there connection between them and the LVM volume group nova-volumes ?
