There are several ways to load modules in the initrd. To keep things simple
lets focus on the two used here:
1. /etc/sysconfig/kernel modules
There is a variable in that file that defines which modules should be loaded
(order is kept!) on bootup. This is done very early (at the end of
boot-start.sh). In a normal setup yast puts storage controller devices in here.
2. udev
Every mkinitrd module can define a set of modules it wants to load using udev.
Here is where USB drivers come in. Udev gets loaded at a later point and has
its own logic to define orders.
If I understand you correctly you actually want to define a module loading
order, not really go into the shell. If that's what you want, simply define an
order in /etc/sysconfig/kernel that you like. The modules there will be
modprobe'd in that exact order.
In case you really need a shell, just add a line saying "bash" as the last line
in /lib/mkinitrd/scripts/boot-start.sh and run mkinitrd.
