Custom install ISO?

Is there any way to build a custom install disk for Arch Linux?  I'm planning on removing my add-in PCI network card so that I can use the onboard one and free up a PCI slot.  However, my on-board requires a the r8168 driver, which isn't in the kernel and had to be built from AUR.

What I'm looking to do is make either

A) a custom install CD that has the r8168 built off of AUR, plus its dependencies and a current snapshot of the system packages.
B) a netinstall CD that has the r8168 driver included on it.

FYI you don't need to reinstall to change hardware.

I'm aware of that.  I might need to do a reinstall later in the future however (for whatever reason), so I want to be prepared.
