insmod Stall

I'm debugging a script that uses insmod to load a set of about 8 modules. It hangs my machine completely. It requires a reboot via power down/up. I decided I could do this one by one to find the culprit. My first attempt, /sbin/insmod rtl.o hung the machine again. I'm definitely not a kernel guy or a module guy. What would be a good way to determine what's ailing the insmod?
