LVM adds another layer to the disk access scheme, so there's another step.
You need to create a volume and attach the partition to the volume. In
the LVM world, only volumes have drive letters.

Switch to logical view and press Enter to bring up the menu. Don't worry
about where the cursor bar is. It does not matter yet. Select the Create
Volume option and follow the prompts. Tell you you want to use an
existing partition when you get to that point.

You can create the volume and the partition at the same time, but then you
don't get all the positioning options you get from physical view.

There was a Mr. KIA article that discussed the gory details.
