If you need to load the modules package itself from the hard drive, I found
that you have to add these lines to the /boot/etc/modules and the modules to
the /boot/lib/modules directory.  Is that not the case?

If you need to do this, you have to first uncompress and mount the initrd.lrp package

        gunzip -S .lrp initrd.lrp
        mount -t minix initrd /mnt -o loop

Then you can copy the files to /mnt/boot/lib/modules and make the changes to
/mnt/boot/etc/modules.  Then umount the image and recompress it.

        umount /mnt
        gzip -S .lrp -n initrd

Is there an easier way?  That is just how I got it to work.
