My experience has been to avoid it on multi boot systems beca
Another thing to note, you can't see the "partitioning" that CentOS is
going to do to your LVM partition off the bad via the text-based
console. When I installed CentOS 5, I did a graphical install, then it
allowed me to resize the LVM LV's with great ease to my taste.

LVM is great if A) you've read the LVM-HOWTO and understand it B) you don't
need to read or write the disks on a non-Linux machine.
A is important because there are a number of gotchas with the
