[ubuntu] Flexible Partitioning Tool

I have been away from the ubuntu scene for a while...

When I installed ubuntu, I used the text partitioner to set up lvm partitioning the way that I wanted. However, ubuntu does not have the text installer with the desktop image anymore. Is there a partitioning tool with the flexibility of the old text based one that I could use during/before installation?

I don't minding playing around with manual lvm stuff however the tool did provide convenience with the encryption setup.
