No, that should work out of the box. The default T2 initrd
contains the USB drivers, even firewire and SBP2, as well as
includes a 15 seconds "wait for rootdevice" loop.

with root=/dev/sd<the usb number>

it works for me (e.g. also for the livecd case where it boots
from USB CD-ROMs.

Do you run into a specific problem?
