You can just use .text 

installations = browser.find_elements_by_css_selector('p.machine-name.install-info-entry.x-hidden-focus') 

for installation in installations: 
  print(installation.text)

Note that installations is a list of web elements, whereas installation is just a web element from the list.

UPDATE1:

If you want to extract the attribute from a web element, then you can follow this code: 

print(installation.get_attribute("attribute name"))

You should pass your desired attribute name in get_attribute method.

You can read innerHTML attribute to get source of the content of the element or outerHTML for source with the current element. 

installation.get_attribute('innerHTML')

Hope this will be helpful.
