Michal Sojka ee8ae2da4c nixos/doc: fix installing from other distro
The nixos-generate-config command mentioned in the manual fails with error:

    nixos-generate-config: no need to specify `/` with `--root`, it is the default

This was introduced in 611b8c4472
(#161034). Now, the command should be called without any arguments.

This directory is temporarily needed while we transition the manual to CommonMark. It stores the output of the ../md-to-db.sh script that converts CommonMark files back to DocBook.

We are choosing to convert the Markdown to DocBook at authoring time instead of manual building time, because we do not want the pandoc toolchain to become part of the NixOS closure.

Do not edit the DocBook files inside this directory or its subdirectories. Instead, edit the corresponding .md file in the normal manual directories, and run ../md-to-db.sh to update the file here.
