The link you provided is for CentOS 5.0 and GPT, and you are installing 
CentOS 6.2.
I read somewhere that CentOS 6.x creates/supports GPT tables if Disk is 
larger then 2TB.

- Have you initialized that RAID with MSDOS partition (manually or with 
older/different distro) or was it by CentOS 6.2 installation DVD?
- What happens if you initialize RAID with GPT?
