you can also build them as modules, and then add them  as 2 lines in
/etc/modules.autoload/kernel-2.6 file and they will be loaded at the top of
start of local and imedeately after the start of boot services.... this is a
way of loading modules that udev will not load by default and that you still
want to load at boot....

Thanks for the help.
