Support generic linux install #167

I wanted to try making a slow migration to nix on my currently working Garuda system. Though I'm not seeing an obvious way to set that up, I still am not great with the nix language.

You've only listed instructions for OSX, and NixOS, but not generic linux.
I decided to follow the osx instructions since that is pretty much closest to how I want this to go on my current system.
Though I hit the disko portion and I'm at a loss on this. My first thought is to just strip disko from the config, but then I'm not super sure how to make sure that anything relying on that configuration doesn't break something. I've got a decently stable system right now and would rather not wipe it out.

Any advice on what steps to take? And is there any possibility for an out of the box generic linux config in the future so that people like myself can make a slow migration?

Effectively what I'm going for is to overlay nix on top of my current system similar to how it works on OSX, and slowly migrate all my configs, and applications over to it. No formatting disks and whatnot.
