LVM=

Ubuntu Feisty

Found in Ubuntu Forums.

Search for the latest fedora system-config-lvm, e.g. via rpmfind.net and download it 

 wget ftp://rpmfind.net/linux/fedora/releases/7/Everything/i386/os/Fedora/system-config-lvm-1.1.1-1.0.fc7.noarch.rpm

Install alien: 

apt-get install alien

And convert the rpm into a debian package and install it. 

alien -d system-config-lvm-1.1.1-1.0.fc7.noarch.rpm
dpkg -i system-config-lvm_1.1.1-2_all.deb

Ubuntu works with python2.5, so make a symlink as follows 

 ln -s /usr/bin/python2.5  /usr/bin/python2

Either start directly from a terminal or create a starter in menu->administration with 

gksudo system-config-lvm

Be aware that all changes to lvm will take effekt emediately - so be careful what you do!
