Description of problem: http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/17/html-single/Installation_Guide/index.html#sn-boot-options-network doesn't agree with http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Anaconda_Boot_Options Notice that ip= and dns= (and more) don't actually work per the later in F17 and later, but are still mentioned in the install guide. In other places, the install guide does reference the Anaconda_Boot_Options wiki, but doesn't forgo listing the older (and now incorrect) boot options as well.
Thanks for reporting this, Joshua. I've overhauled that section to explain the Dracut syntax for the lone 'ip' boot option and I've generated a new example. You can view the commit here: http://git.fedorahosted.org/cgit/docs/install-guide.git/commit/?id=1946347f834373ed1873d379693b5b83fe92995a

Look better. When does this get published / go live?
The final version will be released on GA day for Fedora 18 (see https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/18/Schedule?rd=Releases/18 for the latest), but a draft will hopefully be released prior to that date.
