Well, if you compile the module to be part of the kernel image, then
when the kernel loads, that former module will also be loaded since it's
already a part of the kernel itself. And if you need to pass some
parameters, then you'll have to use the kernel boot parameters, which
requires typing something in the boot prompt or editing your lilo.conf
or grub.conf or whatever boot loader you are using. :)
