What is the first step in writing drivers for
hardware devices

Reading. Reading. Reading.

Linux Device Drivers, 3rd edition:
http://lwn.net/Kernel/LDD3/

, and also
specifically, i want to write usb drivers...

... which tells me that you didn't attend the talk on
"USB and GNU/Linux - An Overview" ?

For all the discussions we have had with USB in this
mailing list, I'd expect you to be more specific. But,
that's just me.

Anyways, what USB drivers? Host-controller?
Class-drivers? Drivers for a USB hardware?
Audio/video/serial/mass storage/HID/bluetooth?
