I'll reserve my opinions on including wpa_supplicant in base, but I feel that it at least deserves a mention in the Arch Installation Guide. It's strange to me that the installer has better networking support than the base system. I've installed Arch on 5 different laptops, and I've forgotten about wpa_supplicant on every one of them. Maybe something like "Other packages or groups can be installed by appending their names to the above command (space seperated), possibly including the boot loader or wireless networking packages" under "Install the base packages". Thoughts? Wrong section i think, and no need to use pacstrap. After chrooting into your install, you can use pacman iirc . The bootloader already has a section lower on the page, a new section "wireless" just after that would be a good idea i think.
