Yes, the root file system has to be outside of the LVM -- the initrd does not start LVM, so LVM volumes are not available for mounting at that point.
Nope. That's false. I've installed with root _inside_ LVM.
The installer is a little weird and limited (only ext2 and ext3), but the graphical installer does the work.
Seems weird that the graphical installer does it and the text installer doesn't. I've never really liked the GUI installer, esp. since I've on several occasions installed on machines without mice and/or pretty marginal video cards and on machines I have no intension of ever running X11 on.
