It used to be called /etc/conf.modules

The filename might have changed, but you'll need to stuff the module
names into a config file somewhere like that. A good thing to try is
look for something along the lines of /etc/init.d/modules or
/etc/rc.d/init.d/modules and see what files it looks at to load modules.
