I'm using a TS-7250 and the stock tskernel-2.4.26-ts11 kernel. I did not need 
to do a kernel recompile in order to get USB support working. It was just a 
matter of doing an insmod of the right kernel modules. You also mentioned you 
didn't know how to automate the process of loading the kernels.

What I have done is create a file /etc/rc.d/rc.local with the following 
contents:

#!/bin/sh
#
# This script will be executed *after* all the other init scripts.

#Install USB-related kernel modules
insmod usbcore
insmod pcipool
insmod usb-ohci
insmod usb-ohci-ep93xx

#Install module for USB printer support
insmod printer

#Install modules needed to support USB memory devices
insmod scsi_mod
insmod sd_mod
insmod usb-storage

#Mount the USB memory device
#mount /dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part1 /mnt

--- end of pasted script

Near the end of /etc/rc.d/rcS.sysinit I added a line that runs the rc.local 
script. After I have done the above, I can insert a USB memory device in to 
one of the USB ports and confirm it is detected from the messages I get when I 
type the 'dmesg' command.

Cheers!

Kevin.
