You're not missing it. The option to set an static ip is just not

Maybe if one uses 'linux askmethod' and chooses NFS or some other
network type install it would ask for net info. I've only install from
DVD, but it occurs to me that a NFS install would force you to enter static
ip info.
There is a 'asknetwork' boot parameter I turn on when installing from
hard disk that gets it to ask me about the network connection, and I
have successfully defined a static IP at install time that way (of
course, it doesn't work right after the system boots till you disable
NetworkManager and enable network :-).
