You're not returning a value in error case, this would cause error in
the caller of this function.
Also, i'd avoid reading the entire file into memory, instead I'd do
something like this:
try:
with open(filename) as f:
loaded_modules += [os.path.splitext(os.path.basename(mod)[0]
for mod in f]
except IOError:
print("Warning: cannot read list of built-in kernel modules")
# continue with regular code
This will be faster, more and readable as well :)
