I missed /etc/sysconfig/hotplug in usb.rc, fixed patch:
- do not use /etc/sysconfig/usb anymore, use /etc/sysconfig/hotplug instead
But is anything except USB using that? This is an area it'd be good to see RedHat, SuSE, and others agree, but I'd take SuSE as a start.
Also, you're discarding the kernel setting for $DEBUG; maybe it shouldn't be there, but if you want to discard that feature a kernel patch should happen too.
- better check if usb was successfully activated
That is, /proc/bus/usb/001 directory exists? Yes, better!
There's still the issue of needing to get USB partly started _very_ early in boot, for systems with only USB input devices.
Have you looked at what issues would come up from (optionally) running /etc/hotplug/usb.rc from system startup, /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit (or whatever)?
- add two new /etc/sysconfig/hotplug variables:
* use HOTPLUG_USB_HOSTCONTROLLER_LIST to load a fixed list of host
controller drivers
* use HOTPLUG_USB_STATIC_MODULES to load a fixed list of drivers
(for input)
Those seem like good things to keep in an /etc/sysconfig file (and somewhere you had a Debian version, too).
I'll see about merging this, most of it looks fine.
