I guess I left this part out of my initial description:

These are all booting per RedHat's diskless instructions (i.e. per
http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/4/html/System_Administration_Guide/Diskless_Environments.html).
This has the disadvantage of booting from a "gold" image whose changes
can be instantaneously pushed out to all clients. Modprobe won't work
in this situation, if I'm reading the tea leaves correctly.
