That's good for perfect modules. What about modules that need forcing,
I mean 'insmod -f '. My module has a kernel mismatch,
and I have to force insmod it. I think it is not possible with
/etc/modules.

I'd combine /boot or where-ever thekernel is kept into / partition

to be a "good" partition to be bootabl
