I believe he's talking about doing it the ugly way, passing parameters to
the kernel from LILO.  When you boot, you can say to LILO, `linux
hdd=ide-scsi', and LILO will tell the kernel that the hdd device needs the
ide-scsi module to run, which is ugly and unnecessary.  Fortunately, YaST's
boot configuration tools for LILO have the capacity to do this
automatically.
