[rdo-users] TripleO installation failures

[YATIN KAREL]

Hmm that step("sudo yum install -y
https://trunk.rdoproject.org/centos7/current/python2-tripleo-repos-
<version>.el7.centos.noarch.rpm") can confuse users as they don't know what
<version> to use and will required to manually get version by tracing the
url, Following can be used:

sudo yum -y install --repofrompath=tmp,
https://trunk.rdoproject.org/centos7/current/ --disablerepo=*
--enablerepo=tmp python2-tripleo-repos

@Alex wdyt to use ^^ in docs?
