docs: describe the card screen and None
The installer page says what a card system named on a computer does (Where is the SD card?, Look again, the Card root prompt), that Enter on None unticks every system and Back keeps the ticks, and that Space continues outside a list of ticks. KNULLI and ROCKNIX no longer have a computer default. The first-install page names the card screen.
