-<prompt># </prompt>mount -t tmpfs none /mnt
-<prompt># </prompt>nixos-generate-config --root /mnt
-<prompt>$ </prompt>nix-build '&lt;nixpkgs/nixos>' -A config.system.build.nixos-install
-<prompt># </prompt>./result/bin/nixos-install</screen>
-  To start a login shell in the new NixOS installation in
-  <filename>/mnt</filename>:
-<screen>
-<prompt>$ </prompt>nix-build '&lt;nixpkgs/nixos>' -A config.system.build.nixos-enter
-<prompt># </prompt>./result/bin/nixos-enter
