How do I install from the CentOS 6.5 dvd without LVM? Nothing I have tried will permit me to make my own layout unless I accept LVM.

On EL7, you get a choice in anaconda. I’m not sure about EL7, I always select to create my own layout and simply don’t configure LVM. In my case, I use clustered LVM on shared storage, so LVM on the host makes things confusing.
Of course, kickstart scripts are good. Automate the whole install and fine-grained control over partitioning.
Are you doing a text mode install? That has some severe limitations now, unless you create a kickstart file.

Yes, I found that out! I think I’ve finally convinced the installer to do it my way.
