There are a few difference between GUI and CUI installation for Fedora.
Before you setup LVM, you need to create RAID cluster first, and then physical volume on the cluster, after all, logical volume.

I have 1 300gb sata drive for the base OS install. There are 2 x 750gb sata drives setup in hardware raid (on board) raid 0 and mounted as /home. There are also 4 x 80gb drives setup in hardware raid 10 and mounted as /gameserv as this box is used for hosting LAN game servers and file sharing.
The problem is with the raid 10 setup. On install the raid 0 shows up fine and I do not have to mess with it.. was mounting with LVM. It does not show the raid 10 array.. just the 4 single drives.
I had created a software raid 10 setup during install and had it working, but after having a power plug come lose during transport on one of the 80gb drives and doing a hardware rebuild of the array the OS got bitchy (I had used the box with the degraded raid array as I did not have the time/space to look into the problem).
When the box was up and running I was not able to update the kernel from the one that the OS had installed with.. was running into problem with loading the raid modual after trying to read the raid arrays.
I am doing a reinstall of the OS and starting over with that array and am wondering what the best solution is.
