Hi Matt,
if you're getting those "module not found" errors in one bunch, I'd
presume this happens during the initscript of module-init-tools, which
tries to load every module mentioned in /etc/modules. There might be
some leftovers from previous kernel/module-configurations in there.
Check the contents of the file against the error list you get, and
against the present modules in /lib/modules/2.6.12/ .
If that doesn't (or insufficiently) solve your problem, you should
post a small excerpt from your bootlog containing the error messages.
HTH,
Jan
