Description Leslie Satenstein 2013-09-07 12:48:32 UTC
Description of problem:

I noted the following

Within 

http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/19/html/Installation_Guide/s1-pkgselection-x86.html


In the    Note

Only one desktop environment can be selected at install time. To install
additional environments once Fedora is installed, use the *Software*
 tool or the yum groupinstall| command.



I do not recall a previous mention of yum in this guide. We who are
familiar with Fedora know yum as the command line system software tool
that accompanies Fedora.  Perhaps we need to elaborate with a footnote,
about yum and where to visit to fetch the yum documentation.

Added a reference to the system administrators guide for yum info, refer to https://git.fedorahosted.org/cgit/docs/install-guide.git/patch/?id=88a04e9b1905812266974d83c9a0a2960378ed63

Comment 2 Pete Travis 2015-03-05 23:55:10 UTC
This guide was rewritten to be more concise and targeted since this bug was reported.  Usage of `yum` commands is sparse, and I don't think the limited number of directly usable yum commands justifies expanding on yum functionality here.  Look to the System Administrator's guide for yum (and now dnf) usage help.
