I _highly_ doubt you can. Linux uses its own LVM subsystem and partition
type, which (I'm sure it's a safe bet) is not compatible with OS/2's. If
you want Linux installed with JFS, you're gonna have to back up the files
you want, clean up the system, and install Linux fresh, worrying about LVM
once you get the Linux install started.
