Bug#270518: initrd-tools: Only the module for the root filesystem type should be loaded at boot
The upgrade from 2.4 to 2.6 is a special case, because
a lot of modules have been renamed, the module dependencies
have been changed, etc. Guessing the list of modules to
load for 2.6 while 2.4 is running is pretty error-prone.
It is more safe to install some additional modules.
If you rebuild the initrd from within 2.6, then the
additional modules will be gone (hopefully). But please
make sure that you can boot a backup if you try.

Harri
