Description Morgan Leijström 2016-07-17 12:41:46 CEST 
Steps to Reproduce:

1. System: Current cauldron
 System do not have any LVM normally

2. I plugged in my SSD disk from a Mageia 5 system where LVM was used, using esata
  (intended to mount /home which is inside an LVM on that disk)

3. Started diskdrake and it have a tab with the LVM "vg-ssd"
I click it and select the old /home partition in it, assign it mount point /mnt/oldhome, but when i click the mount button it it fail mounting.

Checking /dev/ i see "vg-ssd" is missing.

4. I then issue # vgchange -ay
and then /dev/vg-ssd/ and partitions under it exist.

5. Diskdrake now succeed mounting it. (clicking that mount button again)
