<para>NixOS ISO images can be downloaded from the <link
xlink:href="http://nixos.org/nixos/download.html">NixOS
homepage</link>. These can be burned onto a CD. It is also possible
to copy them onto a USB stick and install NixOS from there. For
details, see the <link
homepage</link>. There are a number of installation options. If
you happen to have an optical drive and a spare CD, burning the

Note that systems which use UEFI require some additional manual steps.
If you run into difficulty a number of alternative methods are presented
in the <link
