Fedup for LVM?

Got a couple of F17 systems that I'm a little wary of re-installing with F18.  Both are setup with two drives, GPT partitioned and running RAID1 with a couple of LVM volume groups.  From what I've read it seems that the anaconda in F18 will not be able to deal with this setup like previous anaconda
