These are kernel modules - sr_mod is for accessing SCSI disks
(probably don't need it), but loop is for using loopback block
devices, which, in my limited understanding of LiveCD innards, is how
the overlay actually works - Jeremy?

Either way, these were probably excluded from the kernel.

This is one of the items that Jeremy has mentioned in items to try in
http://katzj.livejournal.com/440444.html is to actually create a
persistent overlay.  The temporary overlay takes memory, which is
obviously at a premium on the XO.
