Booting rescue mode, same idea a minimal system to fix a system that won't boot. Rescue is not meant to be a replacement installation. LVM partitioning can be done as part of the installation. You probably have to select custom disk partitioning to get to it. If you want to experience working with LVM from command line you may want to install a second disk after installation and deal with it manually.
