+  Provides a basic configuration for installation devices like CDs. This means
+  enabling hardware scans, using the <link linkend="sec-profile-clone-config">
+   Clone Config profile</link> to guarantee
+  <filename>/etc/nixos/configuration.nix</filename> exists (for
+  <command>nixos-rebuild</command> to work), a copy of the Nixpkgs channel
+  snapshot used to create the install media.

+ <para>
+  Additionally, documentation for <link linkend="opt-documentation.enable">
+   Nixpkgs</link> and <link linkend="opt-documentation.nixos.enable">NixOS
+   </link> are forcefully enabled (to override the
+   <link linkend="sec-profile-minimal">Minimal profile</link> preference); the
+   NixOS manual is shown automatically on TTY 8, sudo and udisks are disabled.
+   Autologin is enabled as root.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+  A message is shown to the user to start a display manager if needed,
+  ssh with <xref linkend="opt-services.openssh.permitRootLogin"/> are enabled (but
+  doesn't autostart). WPA Supplicant is also enabled without autostart.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+  Finally, vim is installed, root is set to not have a password, the kernel is
+  made more silent for remote public IP installs, and several settings are
+  tweaked so that the installer has a better chance of succeeding under
+  low-memory environments.
