I will try with the usb.s kernel, and usb-storage as the only module.

But today linux tells me the CD-ROM drive (needed to read the SW81 kernel) 
'may be confused'.  It repeats this message....  (And one computer has a 
bad hard drive boot sector and one 360K floppy drive is formatting disks 
to 180K and refusing to read any formatted properly that have files on 
them, and the two other 360K drives in faster computers are formatting 
with a bad FAT1 but I am told this is a defective BIOS issue, anyway we 
have to fix a few other hardware problems before attacking USB again).
