 Oh yes, sorry for not clarifying.  I can't think of a critical reason why
 we would want LVM involved for this scenario.  It's certainly a valid
 test.  It's possible there would be problems executing a RAID+LVM
 partition scheme, or with finding the '/' volume while booting the
 installed system.  If desired, we have a test for LVM on RAID (see
 [https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Testcase_Partitioning_LVM_LV_on_RAID_PV
 QA:Testcase_Partitioning_LVM_LV_on_RAID_PV]).  However, I don't have
 strong feelings here.  I trust your judgment.

 Thanks!

 Looks good, thanks Hurry!  Yay, no more running 6 different software RAID
 installs :)
