First, double-check that you really have random.ko in your modules directories.
Supposing you don't use nextboot.conf or haven't otherwise modified kernel and
modules paths, those should be /boot/kernel and /boot/modules.

Make sure that you have a large enough message buffer size and boot with verbose
messages enabled.  kernel will report pre-loaded modules at the start of boot.
Check there for any error reports from kernel linker too.
