yes, it is there. I tried kickstarting centos and that works. When
trying fai after failing I now see 2 partitions:

# cat /proc/partitions
major minor  #blocks  name

   8        0    3932160 sda
   8        1     512000 sda1
   8        2    3419136 sda2

lsmod shows the usb_storage driver as well.

Thanks,
