+To build the streamlined NaxOS installer image from source using Nix on any x86_64 Linux machine:
 
 ```bash
+# Build directly from the remote flake:
+nix build git+https://git.lholz.de/naxos/naxos-os.git#iso
+
+# Or clone and build locally:
+git clone https://git.lholz.de/naxos/naxos-os.git
 cd naxos-os
 nix build .#iso
 ```
 
-The output will be located at `result/iso/naxos-installer-*.iso`.

-   - **Step 1**: System hardware inspection and disk discovery.
-   - **Step 2**: Storage architecture choice (Create fresh ZFS pool vs. Safe foreign pool import).
-   - **Step 3**: Target OS disk selection (installs bootloader and root system).
-   - **Step 4**: Network configuration (hostname and DHCP/static IP).

+### What Does the Installer Actually Deploy?
+During Step 6, `naxos-installer`:
+1. **Installs the NaxOS NixOS Modules**: Deploys declarative appliance modules into `/mnt/etc/nixos/naxos-os`.
+2. **Installs the NaxOS Web Dashboard (`naxos-ui`)**: Unpacks the compiled React SPA into `/mnt/opt/naxos/ui/dist`.
+3. **Installs the NaxOS Management Daemon (`naxos-api`)**: Deploys the Node.js fastify backend daemon into `/mnt/opt/naxos/api`.
+4. **Configures Appliance Systemd Services**: Enables `services.naxos.api` (port 8088), `services.naxos.ui` (Nginx reverse proxy on port 80/443), `services.naxos.perses` (CNCF Perses metrics on 8080), Samba SMB with Time Machine, and OpenZFS automated scrub/snapshots.
+5. **Executes `nixos-install`**: Compiles and activates the complete appliance generation.
