I think gregs right.
But don't forget to check /etc/modules.conf. There right module should be in
there, because mkinitrd is just appends the modules listed in modules.conf.

this is not really your problem. (i.e. this "error" occurs even in a "normal
properly configured boot"

I am guessing that you're /partition is on scsi. You need an initrd that
includes the necessary scsi driver. therefore if you swap scsi cards and /
is
on the scsi card that you swapped out, you will need to boot the install cd
in
rescue mode, mount your root partitions (which will probably happen
automagically), and then chroot to your normal system, make a new initrd
(man
mkinitrd), and then update either lilo.conf, or grub.conf as appropriate.
(and
it you're using lilo, you will need to re-lilo.)

you probably should backup the old initrd file, just incase you think you
might
go back to it.

  If each of us have one object, and we exchange them,
     then each of us still has one object.
  If each of us have one idea,   and we exchange them,
     then each of us now has two ideas.
