Hi,
You will need to create a custom initrd that contains the updated
modules that you want to use. Unfortunately it was some time ago since
I had to do this so I cant give you clear instructions on how to go
about doing this but there is lots of documentation on the web. The key
thing you will need to remember is that you need to build the module for
the same version of the kernel as used by the installer.
Good Luck :)
