I have switched from Mandriva to Ubuntu a couple months ago, and kept the EVMS 
setup of my system. You just need to boot the usual Ubuntu "Live Desktop" CD, 
then from inside it you can "aptitude install evms", and then you can install 
on your EVMS volumes. Once done, you just need to chroot into the new install 
and make sure to install EVMS and regenerate the initrd before rebooting.

I personally regret very much that an excellent tool such as EVMS is not 
maintained anymore. I've based all the computer and servers I installed 
during the last years on EVMS, and I thought that it being developped by an 
IBM team was a strong sign that it would have a future...

The machines I installed since the beginning of 2007 are now plain old LVM2 
based... That's unfortunate.
