Quickest start up for speakup and 2.6.24 kernels?

[Georgina]

Hi

At the moment I have speakup patched into a 2.6.24.4 kernel but having
difficulty in getting speakup up and talking before login.  It's a matter of
passing the start=1 param to modprobe.  Is the earliest activation way is to
put it in rc.local?

What are the options for passing parameters to a module during boot up?  Can
it be done at boot loader level?

Many thanks.
