Would a parport CD-ROM drive also need ide-cd.o like internal CD-ROM 
drives do?  (See /root/netsetup).

You can put the lines about inserting the modules in /etc/rc so they will 
run automatically if you have lots of RAM to spare.  The modules might 
require that you have the parport CD-ROM drive plugged in before you 
insert them.

BL3.40 does not have bash, it has sh instead (which points to ash, a 
smaller shell than bash).

You can probably run this particular script without any reference to bash 
or ash because insmod is not part of the shell.

Is there a modules.dep file at the BL3.40 site with the kernel modules?
This would list the dependencies of the various modules, instead of having 
to experiment.
