 Each NixOS host follows one channel. But many times it is useful to get packages
 or modules from different channels.
 
-This is what the overrides are for. You can make use of the `overrides.nix` to
-override specific packages to be pulled from other channels. Any overlay may get
-`channels` as their first argument.
+## Packages
+You can make use of `overlays/overrides.nix` to override specific packages in the
+default channel to be pulled from other channels. That file is simply an example
+of how any overlay can get `channels` as their first argument.
 
-## Example
+You can add overlays to any channel to override packages from other channels.
 
-### Packages
-The override packages are defined as a regular overlay with an extra arguement
-`channels`. This refers to all channels defined in `flake.nix`.

+Pulling the manix package from the `latest` channel:
 ```nix

   inherit (pkgs.latest) manix;
 }
 ```
 
-### Modules
+## Modules
 
 You can also pull modules from other channels. All modules have access to the 
 `modulesPath` for each channel as `<channelName>ModulesPath`. And you can use
 `disabledModules` to remove modules from the current channel.
