Anaconda logging in Installation guide

[Jack Reed]

Hi Pete,

More comprehensive information on this is probably a good idea, although 
I think it would be best suited to an appendix. The logging info 
currently in adminoptions.xml is there because it pertains to a boot 
option, which is the focus of that chapter. However, placing a more 
substantial explanation of different logging options elsewhere in the 
guide may disrupt flow, so an appendix that we can refer readers to at 
any key points in the guide proper might be the way to go. This would 
also lend itself to the detailed structure you've suggested.

That said, I may feel differently when I see the angle you take in 
documenting this. What are your thoughts on where it should go?

Thanks,

Jack
