I was able to load it at run time.
out of frustration I reinstalled from the CD (it's a relatively new box so
there wasn't much to back up). the installer detected the hardware and set
it all up correctly. now it all works as advertised. I also went ahead and
compiled my own kernel so it is moot now anyway.
the funny thing is that I couldn't find any differences in the config files
now and from before when it didn't load durring boot. is there some command
you have to enter after you have edited /etc/conf.modules like you do with
lilo? or is there more to getting a modlue to load than /etc/conf.modules?
