to disable module loading...

Hi,
I have to disable automatic module loading in RedHat 4.4 and in
Fedora5. How do I go about it?

My intention is to run the machine at runlevel 1 by passing kernel
parameter `single` to the command line. I need no modules to be loaded
at this stage. I created an initrd which takes out all `#modprobe
modulename`. But some modules like e1000.ko, ehci_hcd.ko and
ohci_hcd.ko are automatically loaded. I removed the corresponding
lines from /etc/modprobe.conf. No avail.

Where are these modules getting loaded from? They have no dependencies
in the modules.dep. No module depend on their loading as well.

Thanks,
Om.
