usbcore and uhci_hcd are loaded on boot. I added usb_storage in the
"Scan hard drives for an installer ISO image" step. usb_storage
loaded scsi_mod. Needed "insmod sd_mod" to get that--wasn't an option
in the termcap UI.

There is only a /dev/discs/disc0/disc under /dev/discs, and when I try
to mount it, I get "Mounting /dev/discs/disc0/disc on /mnt failed:
Invalid argument". In syslog:
kernel: Unable to load NLS charset cp437
kernel: FAT: codepage cp437 not found
It is verily a VFAT-formatted device, since I copied boot.img onto it.
Is this causing the ISO scan to fail? It appears in syslog at that
time as well.
