Netconsole needs special support from the network device to do "polled" accesses that allow the device to send packets with interrupts disabled. This is needed to make sure that even panic messages get through. Due to the asynchronous nature of usb and its layers, I don't think you can implement a polled interface on a "usb network device"... -- Paulo Marques Software Development Department - Grupo PIE, S.A.
