Looking for firmware/driver, missing from pacman output are:
core/b43-fwcutter (don't think this is usefull on LiveCD)

core/iwlwifi-5150-ucode (This should be added)

extra/brltty (Not sure if this is usefull without special modifications
on CD/Installer. We have had already a discussion about barriere free...
But adding id won't harm us and braille user has the needed kernel
module)

extra/madwifi (IMHO not absolute needed anymore and it could collide
with kernel atheros module)

IMHO with these we have most packages on image to set the user able to
access internet - and install additional packages he must/will have.
