Simple. Put the manual install instructions in
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Manual_Firmware_Install and then, in each relnotes
page add {{:Manual_Firmware_Install}}, which will include the text of that
page in the one it is as a template in.

If you want to be even cooler, in Manual_Firmware_Install, put the tags
<onlyinclude> and </onlyinclude> on the stuff that you want to be included.
