looks like you are missing snd.ko. I am not sure where in the kernel
this is activated - perhaps you have it as a builtin instead of a module.
I compiled ALSA as a module instead. That got rid of the above error, but /etc/init.d/alsasound still spits out the same error, but loads a few more modules:

* Loading ALSA modules...   [ ok ]
*   Loading: snd-card-0...        [ ok ]
*   Loading: snd-seq-oss         [ ok ]
*   Loading: snd-pcm-oss         [ ok ]
*   Loading: snd-seq         [ ok ]
* ERROR: Failed to load necessary drivers
* Restoring Mixer Levels...   [ ok ]
* No mixer config in /etc/asound.state, you have to unmute your card! [ ok ]
