The manuals are both included with the product and available online. If you
have the resources to download the product, then you have the resources to
read the manual. Your decision not to take advantage of this is not the
same thing as it not being available.
The manuals may be found by following either the "support" or "download"
links from <http://www.redhat.com/>. I'm not sure how much more available
they can be... other than browser to the 'docs' directory on the
installation CD.

You had the ability, it's called "Custom" install. You chose not to use it.
Most of us have made this mistake and we understand why you might be upset.
But your assignment of responsibility to the vendor is misplaced. If you
want to make choices then don't choose the default.
