Hi


lvm2 basically always require a 'root' access for any 'real usable' lvm2 
command - so saying you don't have write access to /etc  looks very strange to 
start with.

We have also configure option  --with-confdir=[/etc]
but I still think you should start with explaining what are you actually 
trying to do - as maybe there is some design issue??
