no, not me.
but I did just (week or so ago) build a system on Centos-7 using
two HDs as RAID-1. I used Anaconda to do the partitioining, did NOT
partition the drives beforehand like you did.
creating RAID in Anaconda is not especially intuitive, but it can
be done.
here's the general recipe I followed:
http://www.ictdude.com/howto/install-centos-7-software-raid-lvm/
you can also do manual partitioning if you don't want LVM, just
define your own partitions and specify whatever non-LVM filesystem
you prefer.
it's not, as I said, exactly intuitive, but if you play around with
it for a while you'll be able to figure it out. it might be easiest
to create a VM and try it there until you get it the way you like.
