The other solution is to specify modulename.moduleparameter=value at the boot commandline.
Well, what I'd like to know is if its possible to load a kernel module atthe the boot prompt. After boot, I can say, 'modprobe speakup_ltlk' to get speech but sometimes it is important to have speech during boot. That way I can hear the boot messages.
Actually, if the serial console worked, that would probably be enough for me. I can't speak for all blind people but if I really needed to see boot messages, I'd probably want to access them through a serial console anyway since that way you can cut & paste them into an email or whatever.
I'm going to try that serial console thing again tomorrow. I know you said its a bug but I am not sure that the cheat codes were getting through to the kernel because I wasn't pressing tab before typing them.
