I was able to put the drive into another linux system and mount it. After mounting I was able to retrieve the data.

Not sure if this is what you are after,

Thank you for your kind reply.

I applied what you said but invain. When I was mounting the hard disk in other machine, It was showing the error "file system type not found". In that hard disk lvm was created and mounted on /root. I renamed the logical volume. When I run the command e2lable /dev/sda, It wan not finding /root .
Please tell me what is cause and solution.

With warm regards.
Amit.
