Revert "add unstable iso image download" (#1701)
Reverts #1677 See: NixOS/nixpkgs#355893 Unstable will be changing the layout of the ISOs somewhat in the next channel update. Importantly, there will no longer be separate GNOME and Plasma ISOs. Instead there will be a single combined ISO where either can be selected in the boot menu. This makes the incoming unstable update incompatible with the recently merged PR that adds unstable ISOs to the homepage. The simplest course of action seems to be to revert the addition to the homepage and reintegrate it when the homepage updates for 25.05, when these changes will be live for both stable and unstable. @flyfloh My sincere apologies. I should have communicated the imminent changes to the unstable ISO before your PR was merged. I will help reintegrate it once 25.05 comes around.

You can install NixOS on physical hardware by burning one of the CD images onto a blank CD/DVD disk, or [by copying it onto a USB stick](/manual/nixos/stable#sec-booting-from-usb). For **installation instructions**, please see the [manual](/manual/nixos/stable).

The graphical installation ISO image **contains the graphical NixOS installer** as well as a **Desktop Environment** and several applications. It’s a _live CD_, so it allows you to get an impression of NixOS (and the Nix package manager) without installing it.

Note that while the image itself only comes in GNOME and Plasma variations, the included installer also allows installing various other desktops, or installing without a desktop.

### Minimal ISO image

The minimal installation ISO image **does not contain the graphical user interface,** and is therefore a lot smaller. You have to [run the installer from the console](/manual/nixos/stable/#ch-installation). It contains a number of rescue tools.
