We construct all complete metrics of cohomogeneity one G(2) holonomy with S^3x S^3 principal orbits from gauged supergravity. Our approach rests on ageneralization of the twisting procedure used in this framework. It correspondsto a non-trivial embedding of the special Lagrangian three-cycle wrapped by theD6-branes in the lower dimensional supergravity. There are constraints thatneatly reduce the general ansatz to a six functions one. Within this approach,the Hitchin system and the flop transformation are nicely realized in eightdimensional gauged supergravity.Comment: 31 pages, latex; v2: minor changes, references adde
