Well... your / is reiserfs, so your /lib/modules is on reiserfs,
if reiserfs is a module, it will be in /lib/modules, which cant be read
till it can be mounted, and cant be mounted till you've loaded the
reiserfs module.  Which, although I dont use reiserfs myself, I would
imagine would provide a little bit of a circular problem :)
