There is a texinfo section in the online manual (^H i).

The procedure is pretty simple.  Put a copy of texinfo.tex in the same
directory as the .texinfo file you want to process, or better, in your
system's /usr/lib/tex/inputs directory.  Run TeX with the .texinfo
file as input.  The .dvi file will appear in the directory you are in.
