Description Adrien Kunysz 2009-09-15 12:25:34 UTC
In chapter 31.1 of the installation guide, you will find this:
> Many system administrators would prefer to use an automated installation
> method to install Fedora on their machines. To answer this need, Red Hat
> created the kickstart installation method. Using kickstart, a system
> administrator can create a single file containing the answers to all the
> questions that would normally be asked during a typical installation.
> Kickstart files can be kept on a single server system and read by individual
> computers during the installation. This installation method can support the
> use of a single kickstart file to install Fedora on multiple machines,
> making it ideal for network and system administrators.
> Kickstart provides a way for users to automate a Fedora installation.

This shouldn't be about Fedora, this is a RHEL installation guide.

Section 4 also say I should report this agains version 5.1 but this is probably wrong:
>  If you spot a typo in the Red Hat Enterprise Linux Installation Guide, or if
> you have thought of a way to make this manual better, we would love to hear
> from you! Submit a report in Bugzilla (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/)
> against the component Installation_Guide (Product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux,
> Version: 5.1).

Thanks for these -- I've cleaned them up in the source and the changes will become visible the next time that we republish the doc.
