I have no idea, but you could test renaming those modules, so that they 
can not be loaded. The blacklist does not work if another module 
explicitly wants to load a blacklisted module.

At least you should get an error, and that error might point to what wants 
to load them :-?

Another idea. How about checking your fstab does refer to /dev/sdX?
