Of course you are using an *old* version of documentation. F18 was long
before F25 where we are now.
As I already mentioned. I did the install in a configuration which I
thought you wanted to end up with and I did so successfully. It is
irrelevant to refer to obsolete documentation where what you want may
not have been possible.
I use the documentation I can access via the fedora sites and this was
the installation guide I found.....
No need to do anything manually.
I did not say that things are to be done manually (but I think that it
is easier and quicker to things manually and I regret that this option
does not exist for the installer), I said that the graphical
presentation is illogical because the hierarchy is: partition>raid
devices>lvm as you can see using lsblk:
NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT
sdb 8:16 1 931,5G 0 disk
└─sdb1 8:17 1 700,1G 0 part
└─md127 9:127 0 700G 0 raid1
├─fedora-boot 253:1 0 1G 0 lvm /boot
├─fedora-var 253:4 0 15G 0 lvm /var
├─fedora-swap 253:2 0 4G 0 lvm [SWAP]
├─fedora-root 253:0 0 40G 0 lvm /
├─fedora-opt 253:5 0 40G 0 lvm /opt
└─fedora-home 253:3 0 600G 0 lvm /home
sda 8:0 0 931,5G 0 disk
└─sda1 8:1 0 700,1G 0 part
└─md127 9:127 0 700G 0 raid1
├─fedora-boot 253:1 0 1G 0 lvm /boot
├─fedora-var 253:4 0 15G 0 lvm /var
├─fedora-swap 253:2 0 4G 0 lvm [SWAP]
├─fedora-root 253:0 0 40G 0 lvm /
├─fedora-opt 253:5 0 40G 0 lvm /opt
└─fedora-home 253:3 0 600G 0 lvm /home
So using the installer for partitionning, once you have chosen a mount
point you can find a dropdown menu where you can choose lvm (default) or
raid (or btrfs...) and keeping in mind that raid is before lvm in the
hierarchy, you naturally choose raid and you cannot have lvm after
that... This is not a logical way!

Sounds as if you should donate some translations to the anaconda team.
(Wonder if there may be a difference in wording for French and
Canadian-French as well as other localized versions.)

I did the install a second time in order to document the steps which
absolutely work.

items pointed out.
Should be in the official documentation....
