For rt73usb no firmware is needed. Just use vanilla kernel built-in module.
as i did:
CONFIG_RT2X00=m
CONFIG_RT2X00_LIB=m
CONFIG_RT2X00_LIB_USB=m
CONFIG_RT2X00_LIB_FIRMWARE=y
# CONFIG_RT2400PCI is not set
# CONFIG_RT2500PCI is not set
# CONFIG_RT61PCI is not set
# CONFIG_RT2500USB is not set
CONFIG_RT73USB=m
CONFIG_RT2X00_LIB_DEBUGFS=y
CONFIG_RT2X00_DEBUG=y
With:
[I] sys-kernel/vanilla-sources
Installed versions: 2.6.24_rc5(2.6.24_rc5)(02:05:20
16.12.2007)(-build -symlink)
