So I managed to install Arch, and set up the network. I have a Broadcom 4313 wireless chip, all I had to do is blacklist the bcma module, because it conflicted with the brcmsmac module, both are loaded by default (no need to add anything to MODULES=(), only the blacklist bcma entry to modprobe.conf)
So now I have a wlan0 interface that works perfectly fine, only I get these status messages during boot, that are totally unnecessary, see screenshot. These just pop up from nowhere, and annoy the heck out of me, disrupting the login and whatnot.
So can these be turned off somehow? I suspect they come from the brcmsmac module itself.

Do you have 'quiet' on your kernel boot line in grub?
kernel /vmlinuz-linux root=/dev/disk/by-uuid/bf1d191b-0f0d-4961-bd67-4d023a2e5873 quiet ro

Add "dmesg -n 3" to /etc/rc.local

No, no quiet.

Add "dmesg -n 3" to /etc/rc.local
That seems to solve my problem, thank you!
Just out of curiosity, what numbers, or levels are available for the -n switch? The man doesn't state that.

No, no quiet.
Add it. If this doesn't work, try 'loglevel=3'.

The loglevel=3 does the job, too.
"quiet" doesn't seem to do anything.
The last link is what I was looking for, thanks.

I had the same thing a week ago.
Installing the broadcom-wl from the AUR also worked for me.
Not sure what's the best option?
