well, you can load the modules manually, of course :)

recently i came to believe that loading the oss modules in the
init script would make the life easier.  then we can delete all these
complex things.  the only necessary configuration is an alias

        alias snd-card-0 snd-xxxxx

and others are not necessary.  even the alias above can be omitted
if alsasound init script reads another configuration file such like
/etc/sysconfig/sound and retrieves the driver modules from it.

nevertheless, the two entries i referred to are irrelevant with OSS.
as long as you're using alsasound init script, they are not needed,
although you may get annoying messages from the kernel if you access
to an unexisting device (but this also happens e.g. when you access to
/dev/mixer3 which is not aliased).
