This page has a lot of good info.

You will need a usb keyboard.  IIRC default bios settings try to boot
off of the floppy and I had to change them to get it to look at the
usb disk,

Then if you hook up a grub or lilo enabled usb disk it should "just
work."  Bus powered USB devices may need a powered hub to work.

If you want to use the nand flash then you have to enable that as well
but thats all on the wiki.
