Description of problem:
The example of the kickstart network option is not clear and actually would not work according to the instructions as it contains "\". This is a VERY minor issue but the example is not clear.

 The static method requires that you enter all the required networking information in the kickstart file. As the name implies, this information is static and are used during and after the installation. The line for static networking is more complex, as you must include all network configuration information on one line. You must specify the IP address, netmask, gateway, and nameserver. For example: (the "\" indicates that this should be read as one continuous line):

network --bootproto=static --ip=10.0.2.15 --netmask=255.255.255.0 \
--gateway=10.0.2.254 --nameserver=10.0.2.1

If you use the static method, be aware of the following two restrictions:

    *
      All static networking configuration information must be specified on one line; you cannot wrap lines using a backslash, for example.

The example should be displayed without the "\" as is done further down the page for the "user" option

quote
user (optional)
    Creates a new user on the system.

    user --name=<username> [--groups=<list>] [--homedir=<homedir>] [--password=<password>] [--iscrypted] [--shell=<shell>] [--uid=<uid>]
