Do you think that your volume descriptors got hosed? The main LVM diagnostic 
commands are:

pvs, pvscan, lvscan, pvscan, pvdisplay, lvdisplay, vgdisplay

When you remake your LVM, you may want to use vgcfgbackup to save your volume 
descriptors...

I re-read your original post. Are you saying that your problem is that you don't 
have a /sbin/fsck.ext4? It looks like this is packaged in  e2fsprogs 1.41.3-1 
(in lenny). Am I misunderstanding your problem?
