Christian Berendt a2d662d600 Unified the syntax of the XML root element (install-guide)
The XML root element of Docbook XML files should match the following
format:

<ELEMENT xmlns="http://docbook.org/ns/docbook"
  xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude"
  xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"
  version="5.0"
  xml:id="THE_XML_ID_OF_THE_ELEMENT">

<title>Launch an instance</title>
<para>An instance is a VM that OpenStack provisions on a compute node.
This guide shows you how to launch a minimal instance using the
<glossterm>CirrOS</glossterm> image that you added to your environment
in the <xref linkend="ch_glance"/> chapter. In these steps, you use the
command-line interface (CLI) on your controller node or any system with
the appropriate OpenStack client libraries. To use the dashboard, see the

<para>Launch an instance using
<link linkend="launch-instance-neutron">OpenStack Networking (neutron)
</link> or
<link linkend="launch-instance-nova">legacy networking (nova-network)
</link>. For more

<para>These steps reference example components created in previous
chapters. You must adjust certain values such as IP addresses to
match your environment.</para>
