add something so we modprobe some stuff for at least one family of USB
...
controllers (uhci-hcd). This is of course not very elegant: even if a
machine does not have USB, or another USB controller this module will loaded.
A better way would be to let some hardware probing program run first, but
that is "future work"

replace a lot of tools we initially use with statically linked versions.
...
This reduces the ramdisk installer size with a few megabytes when gzipped,
but with about 40 MB when unpacked in memory.
There are a few improvements possible:
- strip the binaries. This saves another few MBs.
- only copy the binaries we really need to /bin or /sbin. This could reduce
the size of the installer a lot, especially with util-linux, of which we
don't use that many tools at all.
- try to move some packages we link with glibc right now (like util-linux) to
dietlibc. This will not work for bash, already tried that.
- try to use busybox as a replacement for everything.
