don't recommend starting from an empty flake...

...as we've received feedback that this is  more
confusing for newer users than starting from the
example and it's probably safe to assume more experienced
users will be able to figure it out on their own.

 ## Steps required to run nixos-anywhere
 
-1. **Enable Flakes and Create a Directory**:
+1. **Enable Flakes**:
 
-   - Ensure that flakes are enabled on your system. To enable flakes, refer to
-     the [NixOS Wiki](https://nixos.wiki/wiki/Flakes#enable-flakes).
-   - Create a directory to store the flake and configuration files.
+   Ensure that flakes are enabled on your system. To enable flakes, refer to the
+   [NixOS Wiki](https://nixos.wiki/wiki/Flakes#enable-flakes).
 
-2. **Initialize a Flake**: Within the newly-created directory, execute the
-   command:
+2. **Initialize a Flake**:
 
-   ```bash
-   nix flake init
-   ```
-
-   This command will generate a `flake.nix` file. Modify this file according to
-   your requirements.
-
-   - **For a Minimal Setup**:\
-     You can copy and paste the example flake contents available
-     [here](https://github.com/numtide/nixos-anywhere-examples/blob/main/flake.nix).
-     This example is tailored for a virtual machine setup similar to one on
-     [Hetzner Cloud](https://www.hetzner.com/cloud).
+   The easiest way to start is to copy our
+   [example flake.nix](https://github.com/numtide/nixos-anywhere-examples/blob/main/flake.nix)
+   into a new directory. This example is tailored for a virtual machine setup
+   similar to one on [Hetzner Cloud](https://www.hetzner.com/cloud), so you
+   might need to adapt it for your setup.
 
-     **Hardware-Specific Configuration**: If you're not using a virtual machine,
-     you'll need to generate a custom hardware configuration with
-     `nixos-generate-config`.

   1. **Option 1**: If NixOS is not installed, boot into an installer without
      first installing NixOS.
