    doc: Use "Alternatively" instead of "Alternately".
    
    These two words have different meanings and we really meant
    "alternatively" here.
    
    * doc/guix.texi (System Installation):
    (Preparing for Installation):
    (Invoking guix refresh):
    (Invoking guix challenge):
    (Networking Services): "Alternatively", not "Alternately".
