I've read in the past that the alternate ubuntu live cd has lvm
support built in. Maybe check that out, also maybe something like
knoppix could do the trick

Can it be done?
All the instructions I've found on the net require installation of
lvm2 - not sure this is practical on Live CD, even if it was
connected to the net, which it isn't.
The computer belongs to a club (I haven't had direct access to it
yet) - the "administrator" has vanished and taken the password with
him and the drive is now at least partly corrupted and won't boot
without a root password.
fstab tells me it's LVM.
OS is Fedora 7.x. Would a Fedora live CD mount it? DSL maybe? I
don't have either but would get one if it worked.
