Yes, I left out the second CTRL-s, thank you!
Oh well, I shouldn't have sent this late at night, then I would probably
have explained the needed input as:
1) CTRL-s // start isearch
2) de // substring that matches "Device Drivers"
3) ENTER // quit isearch
4) ENTER // enter Device Drivers menu
5) CTRL-s // start isearch
6) usb // navigate to USB support
7) ENTER // quit isearch
8) ENTER // enter USB support menu
Again, I'm really sorry for the confusion.
