You can force the issue by modifying /etc/sysconfig/kernel so that
"MODULES_LOADED_ON_BOOT" specifies the driver name.

Mark,

That is correct.  I just tried it and when I rebooted the TAPE_
statements are gone from the end of dmesg and /proc/tapedevices is not
there.  I am not sure how but I am pretty sure that I rebooted and I
still had TAPE_CHAR and TAPE_BLOCK.  It may have been before I was using
the chccwdev command and used the mknod command that was causing them to
remain.

Also, I tried running mkinitrd and zipl, but I still have to run
modprobe and chccwdev after a reboot.  Any idea why?

Thanks,
