I'm finding it hard to imagine what could be the problem, so seeing
the exact errors would be really useful.
Also it's a little unusual using an entire disk (/dev/sda) for a
filesystem instead of just a partition of it (e.g. /dev/sda1).
Though it should still work.
Observations not related to your current problem:
I see you are using LVM so I do wonder why you didn't use /dev/sda
as an LVM physical volume, extend the volume group into it and get
your /home as a logical volume then.
I also see several disk devices in use here but can't see any
obvious redunancy (software RAID) - something to be concerned about
unless you're using harwdare RAID.
Cheers,
Andy
