Hu? If your wifi driver is built as a module, then surely it gets
loaded *after* the root filesystem has been mounted: kernel modules are
files, so you cannot load them before the root filesystem is mounted.
Can you show your kernel .config file, as well as the complete boot log
of your platform?
Thanks,
Thomas
