Rastus Vernon d6998b0674 nixos manual: recommend use of dd for writing the image Unetbootin works by altering the image and placing a boot loader on it. For this reason, it cannot work with UEFI and the installation guides for other distributions (incl. Debian and Fedora) recommend against using it. Since dd writes the image verbatim to the drive, and not just the files, it is not necessary to change the label after using it for UEFI installations. vcunat: tiny changes to the PR.

README

To build the manual, you need Nix installed on your system (no need
for NixOS). To install Nix, follow the instructions at

    https://nixos.org/nix/download.html

When you have Nix on your system, in the root directory of the project
(i.e., `nixpkgs`), run:

    nix-build nixos/release.nix -A manual.x86_64-linux

When this command successfully finishes, it will tell you where the
manual got generated.
