so how would i combine LVM and software raid 1? Would i do the lvm setup first or the software raid partitions first?
Everythings could be done during the CentOS installation.
On my servers I usually use software RAID-1. I create a /boot partition at the very beginning of the disk (100MB should be lergely enough for that purpose) and use the remaining space with LVM (swap and as much partitions as I can :). I always keep some GB unallocated if I want to later grow a partition.
Give LVM a try, you will never go back after :).
