Installation
Using a standard stage3 installation everything should pretty much work out of the box.
Firmware
The wireless card requires external firmware (iwlwifi-2030-6.ucode):

Note
It was mentioned in the discussions that the driver package may not be necessary if both "Realtek PCI-E card reader" (CONFIG_MISC_RTSX_PCI) and "Realtek PCI-E SD/MMC Card Interface Driver" (CONFIG_MMC_REALTEK_PCI) are enabled in the kernel.

Troubleshooting
Keyboard/Trackpoint/Touchpad does not work
For some reason on kernels >= 4.2 the keyboard, trackpoint and touchpad do not work on the first boot. To work around this problem, add i8042.nomux=1 i8042.reset to your kernel parameters:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="i8042.nomux=1 i8042.reset"
