What about uhci and/or ohci? (I just noticed that the GENERIC kernel
does not include ehci, so I had to add 'device ehci' to my custom
kernel config.)
Does your usb hardware appear in dmesg? e.g. uhci, umass, uhub, etc?
pciconf -lv should show you what USB controllers your machine has, e.g.
ehci0 at pci0:16:3: class=0x0c0320 card=0x31041106 chip=0x31041106
rev=0x82 hdr=0x00
vendor = 'VIA Technologies Inc'
device = 'VT6202/12 USB 2.0 Enhanced Host Controller'
class = serial bus
subclass = USB
If your USB hardware is supported, the drive should show up as da0s1,
which can be mounted with mount_msdos in the usual way.
