Another benefit to sticking with anaconda would be upgrades -- how would anaconda handle a disk layout that it couldn't parse because unsupported partitioning/formatting was performed? Okay, I played around with the system a bit, and still can't get LVM on top of RAID. I first created the RAID devices, then tried to layer LVM on top of them, but it says that there's no free space. I also tried the other way around (leaving the default LVM layout created by anaconda) and creating RAID devices, but this also results in "no free space" messages. Doesn't RAID get wrapped in LVM, much like disk partitions get wrapped in RAID? If that is not the case, would you detail the steps I should follow in anaconda (FC14, x86_64) to create a root (RAID5), /boot (RAID1), and /home (RAID5) partitions on four disks with LVM?
