Well, "net-setup eth0" works fine for manual configuration. If you're
just looking for scanning, it should work by default, depending on the
driver used for the card. Basically, it isn't any different than
setting up regular networking. If you want the CD to have a specific
ESSID/Key, then set it in /etc/conf.d/wireless in your fsscript.
