It's ok to do this (I do this all the time with my regular setups:
install the system to a mini ext2 partition, make the rest LVM, move
system to LVM, add former ext2 partition to LVM. As the installers
nowadays support LVM this is nolonger needed, but when I started LVM
no installer knew it).
It is only a bad idea when you want to try striping (for, I hope,
obviouse reasons)
