I've added three more USB sotrage devices, with the same result. (The original card reader, plus iRiver T50 MP3 player, Western Digital portable hard drive, and a Hanvon e-reader running OpenInkpot). Here's a transcript showing that none of these triggered usb-storage at boot time. (dmesg shows them only after 700 seconds, when I ran modprobe manually)
