I am sure this is right, but the setup (I presume this is how the RH
distribution looks like) looks a bit strange. It is certainly a
possibility that the kernel has no modules. Then either rmmod itself
should go an look if there are any, and become a noop if there are
none. Or, if the rmmod designer decided that the functionality of
lsmod or whatever beast checks for modules should be external to
rmmod, then the docs should say so (maybe they do), and whoever write
the cron stanza (RH?) should have made it safe. Should this be brought
to the attention of RH?
