Greetings!
I hope you'll forgive the cross-posting, but I wasn't sure which lists this question applied to.
I have a beige G3 mini-tower (300 mHz, ROM Rev. B) running OS 9.2, which I am trying to set up with a PCI USB 1.0 card. I have tried two different PCI USB cards, both of which were advertised as Mac-compatible.
Yes, USB and Firewire drivers aren't installed if the hardware isn't present at the time of install, and the Apple 1.4 drivers are for OS 8.6 and lower. OS 9 and up included newer USB drivers.
You can do a custom install from your OS 9.2 disk and install just the USB drivers. (I did this to install a firewire card.)
