Specifically I am talking about this page

http://svn.oscar.openclustergroup.org/wiki/oscar:5.0:install_guide:ch3.6_other_setup

but this is something that we might want to discuss in general so
folks know where to put such snippets.

The suggestions are good, but the items are very out of context.
These are steps which most users will not have to (should not have
to?) complete, at I have not generally had to deal with these
suggestions unless I was dealing with a less supported distro.  They
seem to be more like troubleshooting suggestions, or maybe even
platform specific notes, but they read as if they are required steps.

Do we need a "troubleshooting" section (to make it clear that these
things aren't something that you neccesarily need to do at this point
in the installation), or should these items be moved to the FAQ on the
web page, a separate user editable wiki, or do they really fit where
they are and just need some additional text to clarify when these
suggestions are appropriate?

I want this kind of "user suggestions" type content, somewhere, but I
also want the install guide to be as simple as possible and very clear
for beginning linux users, which is remains a major audience for
OSCAR.
