[CentOS] Odd behaviour with modules; looking for some theories

Hi all, Recently, after doing some maintenance on one of my servers (Centos 5), I rebooted. On reboot, it didn't find the SAN disks at all, and after some poking around in maintenance mode, I discovered that it couldn't find the Qlogic module. It turns out that /lib/modules//modules.alias
