Well,

I use the same kernel+modules, but I use the fso-nox image from a few days
older (I thought I mentioned it at the top of my script but it seems I
forgot that comment), because newer fso-nox images have no ssh connectivity
(it seems the usb hotplug isn't detected ..).
But I never used the tar.gz way, so I can't comment on it ...
