More suggestions - mainly from back when I rolled my own CLI 'utility'
CD - large focus around hardware utilities.

Networking stuff:
iptraf, aggregate, aggregate-flim, bridge-utils, iproute2, ifenslave

Data recovery:
testdisk with USE='jpeg ntfs reiserfs', 

Hardware stuff:
mcelog, cpuburn, tw_cli (for 3ware controllers), mtx, di, endpoint
(provides a Fireware Target-disk mode, similar to Apple hardware),
freeipmi (userspace IPMI implementation), evms, lvm, dmraid, mdadm,
dmidecode, setserial, x86info, sysstat, 

SCSI stuff:
scsirastools*, scsiping, smp_utils*, lsscsi, sg3_utils, sdparm

The two marked with '*' are really getting out there is terms of
hardware, and can probably be safely relegated to addons.
