oh ok thanks a lot but i want to know how to install Centos Using RAID 1 or Raid 5 Or raid 10 and is it possible to define LVM inside it ?

Did you look at the first result from the second link? That is the documentation which tells you exactly how to install on RAID. The exact RAID levels available depend on whether they are supported, I'm not sure what is available on CentOS 5.5 but RAID 0, 1 and 5 are definitelypossible. /boot partitions need to be on a RAID1 array though.

LVM on a RAID array is also possible, but again, there is a lot of documentation out there that explains how to do that.
