Oh one other bit - speaking from experience here as it took me quite a while to find the proper partition/raid/boot setup, and I must have gone through the installer 30 odd times (until I learned that xfs on top of raid just wasn't happening with the FC5 installer - once I stuck to ext3 it became much easier). You may want to do a minimal install at first to sort of "proof" out the boot/raid system - minimal in the sense of what takes the least amount of clicking to get through the installer. I think if I unchecked everything where it asks if you want an office system, devel system, etc it would only require the first two CDs during install.
Once you got it figured out then go back and do it again with all the custom package selections and whatnot (for me my packages were spread over all 5 CDs - which is a hell of a lot of swapping if you reboot only to find out the raid setup is wrong)...
