This is a LVM "partition"?

You try mount this partition on Freespire? I think that this partition is
umounted, so is impossible access.

Connect your pen-drive on Fedora Rescue and see output of "dmesg".
In dmesg you can see where your pen-drive can be mounted (e.g. /dev/sda1).
So you need creat an directory in /mnt (e.g. #mkdir /mnt/pendrive) and mount
your device (#mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/pendrive)... Now you can transfer your
files to /mnt/pendrive.

After backup, you can run a check surface... If you use a ReiserFS, see this:
