Description of problem:
In the description of the Kickstart option (in Chapter "31.4. Kickstart Options") auth respectively authconfig is an example for "--passalgo"
As described, the available password hashes are SHA256 and SHA512. But in the example it is written "--passalgo=sha256" and "--passalgo=sha215" which is wrong as it should be "--passalgo=sha512"
