file showing wrong information ?

[Bhasker C V <bhasker@unixindia.com>]

Hi all,

 I have this partition table in my system
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Disk /dev/hda: 100.0 GB, 100030242816 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 12161 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

   Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
/dev/hda1   *           1          12       96358+  83  Linux
/dev/hda2              13         134      979965   82  Linux swap /
Solaris
/dev/hda3             135       12161    96606877+  8e  Linux LVM
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>


But when i do a file on the hda1 partition, it says its an LVM 
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
$ sudo file -s /dev/hda1
/dev/hda1: LVM2 (Linux Logical Volume Manager) , UUID:
GzJ8F13ynmOOgrGdfJ34qXfWFHyGKmu
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

I am sure that i have not created a PV in that partition and it is
my /boot file system mounted properly as below

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
$ mount |grep hda1
/dev/hda1 on /boot type ext3 (rw)
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Is file command buggy ?
