My experience would be that, its a good idea to make a new kernel
and compile that latest pcmcia-cs, and wireless-tools against it.

But yes, doing this in debian is entirely the nicest way to start =)

I use debian on all my laptops and gateway/router boxen. It indeed
would be my os of choice =)

Creating a meta dependency package that includes you new/updated
packages is the right way forward to build minimal router boxes.
