Well, this may not be what you want to hear, but I always compile any disk drivers 
into the kernel instead of using modules. Does away with a lot of pain at boot time. 
BTW, you have an initrd image in your /boot directory that is called by your boot 
loader, no? If not, make one and try it again. The command would be something like:

/sbin/mkinitrd 2.4.18-3.img 2.4.18-3
