MacBookPro 8,1 + Arch

I recently bought new MacBook Pro 13.3", but I cant get the OSX to work the way I want. I tried the Arch LiveCD, but its so old that it does not recognize even the Ethernet. So I tried with Kubuntu Natty LiveCD and almost everything is recognized. But I don't like Kubuntu very much, missing a lot of important stuff for example. I miss Arch. Only problem is that I don't know how to install it, because there is no Ethernet (for update).

Current Arch LiveCD is about year old, new one is coming soon? Any other ideas how to install Arch to my new MBP.
