r3dhat,
Something that I use often when I boot a toshiba without any pcmcia cards in it is the nopcmcia boot code.
The machine usually locks up trying to scan the pcmcia slots. Which occurs after you see the processor message. So try booting with:
dsl vga=normal nopcmcia
and see if that works. Then you can try what Someone is suggesting.
After it boots you can open a terminal and do a:
dmesg
command and see if your usb device has been found. Keep posting messages and doing searches. Post as much info as possible (what version of dsl you're using, how you are booting (livecd, usb, frugal, etc), what boot parms you've used, anything you think might help)
I'm usually as lost as most with usb and network cards but someone might read it and be able to help
good luck

======== Note =========
The DSL Forum Search default is 'OR'
If you search for "cat dog" you will get all "cat" posts and all "dog" posts.
If you search for "cat AND dog" you will only find results that contain BOTH "cat" and "dog"
Add '*' for wildcards, " cat* and dog* "
