Here is my notes on working with LVMs:

LVM partitions

I used the following to figure it out.
http://tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/

You'll probably need to do /sbin/vgscan to figure out the lvm name then
run

/sbin/vgchange -a y;
mount /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 /mnt/whatever

To find the mount point try

ls /dev/LVM_Group_name/
