Ok I am confused.

Sda1 ext4 /boot is 200 meg and locked, Will not allow me to do anything 
except format
Sda2 lvm2 not mounted and 931 gig. but is there and active and showing a 
warning
The warning is Logical Volume management not yet supported.




It is also showing all I can do is reformat.

Do I change the file system resulting in a lost disk?


My boot is showing 134 meg free
