The SL-5 and SL-6 installer allows you to create a RAID, an LVM volume
group on the RAID and then partitions (logical volumes) in the volume
group. Logical volumes can be used for everything except /boot. I'd
advice you to do this unless you have really good reasons for not doing so.

I can walk you through the installation steps but I don't think this
will be necessary.

Hope this helps,
Florian Philipp
