  • You would still have needed the LVM activation step, which any GUI tool would have been extremely unlikely to do. The GUI mounting tools are mostly designed for devices that contain just one filesystem like CDs or memory cards, and are unlikely to be capable of handling mounting of a system disk that uses LVM - mostly because the name of the LVM device that contains the filesystem to be mounted is outside the default list of allowed devices for non-root mounts.
