Can installer create degraded RAID-1 (mdraid) partitions

I know that Fedora's installer can create RAID-1 partitions. I'll be putting  
in two hard drives, and setting up RAID-1 on them.

But one of the drives will take a little bit longer to arrive. Anyone happen  
to recall if the installer will let me set up just one drive, for a degraded  
RAID-1 array, and install Fedora? I don't remember the UI details, the last  
time I did this install a few years ago. I suppose I can jsut try, see  
what's possible, and only risk wasting a little bit of time; and if I'm in  
luck I don't have to wait for the 2nd drive, and I'll just drop it in, and  
add it to the array, and let it sync up.

To clarify: I'm referring to mdraid. I know about BTRFS and its own RAID-1  
capabilities, but after it crapped itself all over my laptop, forcing a  
rather inconvenient fresh reinstall, I went back in to ol' reliable ext4 (on  
top of mdraid, on the servers).
