No problem making the default installing all.

(That means around ~60Mb download for the whole packet which makes it a bit 
uncomfortable for users. Installed are just the ~2Mb of firmware files. Most 
firmware files are contained in driver-files which are around 10mb per 
driver/firmware file (extracted firmware file is only some kb) but must not 
be extracted and mirrored cause of license.
Before being sure I have to check the licenses inside these driver archives. 
Up to now I have not found a license file inside every archive.)
