I don't use any LVM, so probably not. Good luck with getting your
laptop working again.
I tried the Scientific Linux list and was advised that the missing lvm
tools were probably responsible for my problem. I don't know why they
got uninstalled - it might have been an SL6/Centos6 initscripts effect -
but fortunately I had 3 compatible packages in cache and was able to
reinstall. vgscan, lvscan, reboot back to normal; great!
I think I agree that lvm is 'a solution to a problem I don't have', but
it was there originally and life seemed difficult when it vanished.
