Note that this is just guesswork and I haven't tried any of it:
There was a code change in April 2004 which might have something to do
with this. Check the call_usermodehelper function near the end of
kernel/kmod.c and see if it has this (the new code):
if (!khelper_wq)
return -EBUSY
If the code instead mentions "system_running", I think you'll need a
newer kernel. The new khelper stuff probably showed up around 2.6.6.
