Base install packages

What are the default packages installed in a base install?
I'm sure there's a list of these somewhere, I just can't find them.

Re: Base install packages

According to the install documentation then base is everything with the 'base' and 'kernel' category assigned to it:

http://www.archlinux.org/packages/searc … ll&limit=0
http://www.archlinux.org/packages/searc … ll&limit=0

Although it's not mentioned, I assume it's also restricted to the 'current' repository and so the experimental kernels in Extra aren't included.
