The documentation for the kernel, and the Handbook, say that if you don't have ethernet you can omit the pseudo-device for ether. If you do this, however, you can't include usb. If you try to do so you get the following error message: linking kernel usb_ethersubr.o: In function `usbintr': usb_ethersubr.o(text+0x31): undefined reference to ether_input' *** Error code 1 Incidentally, if you don't compile in usb but try to insert it later as a module, a similar message appears.
