Another way, depending on what you have received from other people,
would be a QA set. It could easily be an appendix, or you could simply
add a section for FAQ or "Common Issues" if that works better. Since
sections number themselves, they're fairly easy to slip in wherever you
feel they are best suited in the overall doc.
The reason you may want to consider adding this to your document is so
that people who have contributed these answers know that all they need
to do is read your HOWTO to find any of the latest info.
Since I remember working on this document, I'd be glad to help out if
needed!
Thanks,
