We study the supergravity duals of supersymmetric theories arising in theworld-volume of D6 branes wrapping holomorphic two-cycles and specialLagrangian three-cycles within the framework of eight dimensional gaugedsupergravity. When uplifted to 11d, our solutions represent M-theory on thebackground of, respectively, the small resolution of the conifold and amanifold with G_2 holonomy. We further discuss on the flop and other possiblegeometrical transitions and its implications.Comment: 16 pages, harvmac, one figure; references adde
