I've searched all "VolGroup00" in DomU /etc, and delete them, but it didn't
help.
It still scaned logical volumes and failed:
Scanning logical volumes
Reading all physical volumes. This may take a while...
No volume groups found
Activating logical volumes
olume group "VolGroup00" not found
ERROR: /bin/lvm exited abnormally! (pid 353)
Maybe a clean install is a must...
Best,
Binbin
