Strange, I wonder why they're inactive... since you just created them,
they should be active. You did just create them, right? Or did they
exist before? In any case, can you type:
vgchange -a y
and restart the partitioner; then they should show up.

The devices should show up in the main partitioning menu together with
the hard drive and you'll be able to format them there.

Hmm... after activating them with the command above, can you reproduce
this?
