The lvm configuration is stored on the disks. It doesn't care what they 
are called. One thing you *do not* want to do is activate lvm when both 
disks are in the system. (Make sure you "vgchange -an" before you start 
your copy, and don't turn it back on until you're done. If root or 
another critical fs area is on the lvm you'll have to use knoppix or 
somesuch to do the copy.)
