 Agree that's definitely something we don't have and could be useful. I
 think we should stress the point that the extremely simple kickstart file
 is actually complete, especially to lower the stress level of new folks.
 Or, at least make sure that it is complete, then stress it.

 I'm willing to assist you and Dusty here if you like.

Comment (by jberkus):

 The docs are fine for people who already know how to use kickstart, but
 not if they don't.  And the man Fedora docs on how to use kickstart files
 and boot/install from them are confusing and not at all beginner-oriented.
 Basically I'm approaching this from a "how do I do a headless install"
 perspective; we want someone to be able to accomplish that without taking
 a full-day tutorial in Fedora Administration first.

 I went over this some with Dusty, and I think doing a simple example of
 kickstart install from file on laptop + ansible to target server would
 work as a demonstration case.

 Last I looked at that doc (which was a while ago) that kickstart file was
 complete and functional, if short.  Aside for support for ostree, there
 isn't anything specific that Atomic needs from kickstart or kickstart does
 for Atomic.

 What sort of steps do you think are missing?  What tasks are folks trying
 to do with kickstarts that are failing as a result of Atomic?  I think
 there probably are some things we need to document about potential %post
 behavior differences due to the nature of the layouts.

 The documentation here:
 http://www.projectatomic.io/docs/fedora_atomic_bare_metal_installation/
 punts a lot of practical steps off to the main Fedora docs on how to do a
 kickstart install.  Since often atomic bare metal installs will involve a
 system without full GUI support, we need to make it easy for people to do
 this.

 Part of the issue is that kickstart isn't exactly developer-friendly; it's
 a bit complicated to use.  But we can at least doc a step-by-step.
