apparently you have to put the insmod command in /etc/sysinit i believe that modules.conf is just for passing options to the modules i usually just put /sbin/insmod <module_name> into the /etc/rc.local file, or into a startup script if i need it at a specific time. i would like a more thorough explanation of how to link a module into the module path (emulex fibre channel drivers tell me that they are "linking the module into the module path") ivo.
