It seems more like it has found a reference to it but don't see it. It does
not give an error just because there is no logical volume.

I've never seen it but it does not sound like it to me.
When you boot how far does it get?
Are you using the same old drive or is this a rebuilt drive or what?
Hit e to edit grub when it boots, then see what it is trying to load. If you
are using the same drive I'd figure it to be damaged to some extent.

You usually generate one when you compile the kernel, never heard of editing
it. Again, I don't think you are on the right track.
