Not all at once.

First insmod usbcore. Then insmod usb-uhci or usb-ohci (one
will work, one will probably not). Get scsi_mod and sd_mod from
SW71 and insmod them, then insmod usb-storage to try the USB
storage support (which only appears to work on floppy drives
right now). Or insmod input, hid, and keybdev to use a USB
keyboard instead of a USB storage device.

There are other devices you can use, too. You need to insmod
different modules and perhaps make some new device nodes
to use them. Please let me know if you need instructions for any
other devices.
