It sounds like you built the kernel with the megaraid and aic79xx built in...
so, removing the "Modules" won't remove it trying to detect them.  The only way
to get rid of these would be to rebuild the kernel... But.. Lemme tell you
this... the error your getting above... is nothing... it just can't find the
device and it moves on... Its not really an error... Does your system operate
correctly, are their other problems?  My suggestion to you... weight the factor
of rebuilding the kernel, possibly missing something else, like the mouse, or
somesuch.. having to rebuild it again... etc..   or ignoring those missing
devices... its not hurting anything... :)

I have a bit of information... to be able to see what the message is.. you can
use dmesg | more  the entire boot up process is stored, and you can view it any
time you like.  :)

hope that helps.
