Mostly you don't; the only way to configure drivers built into the
kernel is by passing the right command-line options to the kernel
(generally on your 'kernel' line in your GRUB configuration, or with
an 'append=' line in the LILO configuration file).

What are you actually trying to do?  Aliases are generally used to
mean "when foo service is required, load bar driver", which isn't
meaningful for things built into the kernel.
