Description

Link: https://www.linode.com/docs/guides/install-nixos-on-linode/
## Issue
The installer disk size recommended is 1280 MB for the disk to write the ISO file to. The minimal installer is now over 1.6GB.

## Suggested Fix
Change the disk size recommendation to 2.0GB to give some wiggle room. Technically 1.7GB would work but if the ISO continues to grow, it won't for long.
