Create an lvm partition when installing Centos text

If you install Centos in text mode, when creating lvm partitions, you can install centos in text mode instead of graphics mode. I have always thought that there are limits on lvm partitioning in text mode (remember this in the official rhel documentation .) yesterday, I saw a discussion in the linux system management area...
In the case of Centos text installation, when creating lvm partitions, installing centos will enter the text mode instead of the graphic mode.
There are limits on lvm partitioning in text mode (remember to say this in the rhel official document .) yesterday, I saw a discussion in the linux system management area and conducted an experiment to verify that the experiment can be performed in the text mode.
Create lvm partitions and the text installer can also identify lvm. the post of the discussion process, please go to the http://bbs.chinaunix.net/thread-3758363-1-1.html www.2cto.com below to write out the entire experiment process, for your reference. system environment: vmwarevm, Centos5.8, virtual machine assigned 20 GB hard disk. steps: 1. during installation, enter linux text at the end of boot, and enter the text installation method 2. perform other operations according to the standard steps (select language en, keyboard en ...) when partitioning the disk, press alt + f2,
Switch to the console. at this time, a terminal similar to shell is generated. 3. enter fdisk/dev/sda next to #, and manually partition the disk. There are two partitions, one of which is 200 MB. in the future, boot will be given, and the remaining partitions will be allocated to one partition,
Then convert the label of partition 2 to 8e (lvm) (it seems that the conversion is acceptable. for convenience, do not convert sda1.

The installer can identify the lvm partition we have created manually.

9. Mount sda1 to/boot (press f3 when the partition is highlighted) according to previous ideas. my system is centos5.8 and ext4.
The/boot fails, and an error is reported. after formatting to ext3 in the edit window, it passes. others, the lv name already indicates
The directory to be mounted. modify the mount point by pressing f3 when lv_home and lv_root are highlighted.
