MOUNT_LVM-ADDONS 1.0
------------------------------------------------------
MOUNT_LVM-ADDONS v. 1.0 is a collection of user scripts (in bash) designed to mount external or encrypted LVM2 volumes.
1) mount.encrypted.lvm.sh will mount an encrypted (with luks) LVM2 volume $volume (belonging to an option $group (if it was not provided at the CLI, it will be taken from the script)) at $mount_point, which can be either provided in the script itself, or automatically created at /media/$group_$volume_name. You'll have provide the password.
2) mount.external.lvm.sh will mount an LVM2 volume located at an external hard drive, which does not need to be permanently connected. You'll have provide a $volume_name (/dev/mapper/$group-$volume_name) and optionally a group and a mount_point. The mount_point will be automatically created at /media/$group_$volume_name or can be provided in the script. The external drive needs to be powered on.

INSTALLING:
===========
Both scriptsets will run require cryptsetup-luks and lvm2 to be present.
Installing is done by simply copying the files to /usr/bin and the man-pages to /usr/man/man1.

1: general error
2: run this script as root
3: could not create mount_point
