Yeah, that's way too late.  modules.conf specifies modules to be loaded
during /etc/rc.d startup phase;  you need modules to be available during
boot-time autoconfig.

Yep.  Add the various options SCSIVERBOSE, USBVERBOSE, and ACPIVERBOSE 
to your kernel configuration.  Alternative, update your /boot.cfg file
to "push" the various verbose modules to the boot loader.  Just add

	load=scsiverbose
	load=usbverbose
	load=acpiverbose

at the top of the file.
