6.0.3 GNOME initrd missing usb-storage?

["J.A. Bezemer" <j.a.bezemer@opensourcepartners.nl>]

Hi all,

Just trying to boot debian-live-6.0.3-i386-gnome-desktop.*-686 from 
http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/6.0.3-live/i386/web/, running from USB 
stick w/ syslinux. Initrd starts correctly, but then gives many lines of:
cat: can't open '/sys/block/*/removable': No such file or directory

On inspection, usb-storage is not in /proc/modules, and actually
find / -name '*storage*'  (inside the initrd emergency shell)
produces just two /lib/udev/rules.d files, and no kernel module to be 
seen.

So, am I missing something, or ..?


Best regards,
