how does puppy know which modules to load ?

how does puppy know which modules to load at startup ?
and in which order ?

initrd.gz loads some "commands" into ram

and your personal choices at BootManager (`bootmanager`) are written to /etc/rc.d/MODULESCONFIG

I found these modprobes in rc.sysinit : floppy psmouse yenta-socket ehci-hcd nls_cp437 nls_iso8859-1 fuse aufs squashfs apm battery ac thermal fan

But other modules will be loaded (usb,snd, i2c, etc, )
It seems to be done in /sbin/pup_event_backend_modprobe*
And also with udev ?

Not sure how it works.
Can it be simplified ?
Does it work loading all modules at once ?

it seems udev does some job...
but rules are confusing...
