  1. doc: installing-usb make macOS note a note.

    While it seemingly brings more attention to the macOS notes with the
    default docbook template, it better represents which parts of the
    section are about macOS, and which parts are simply in the flow of the
    text; otherwise the last paragraph may be lost into the details for
    macOS.

  3. doc: Reviews partitioning instructions to use parted.

    The tests in <nixos/tests/installer.nix> are using `parted`, so they are
    bound to be better tested than `fdisk`.
    
    This is brought on by a couple issues, plus reports on IRC that the
    `fdisk` instructions didn't work as expected.
    
     * #39354
     * #46309
     * #39942
     * #45478
    
    Care was taken so that the other documented steps did not need changes.
    
    In all this kerfufle, a slight re-organization of the Chapter has been
    made, allowing better deep linking.

  4. doc: installing-usb: removes notes about unetbootin.

    They are known to cause more issues than solving issues; futhermore
    using `dd` should work everywhere without fail.
