Thanks. Thatgets me over one hurdle.
I now get a proper initramfs.

setup is there but the modprobes don't work. :-(.

/lib/modules/2.6.31-pxa270/modules.dep contains
kernel/drivers/usb/gadget/g_ether.ko: kernel/drivers/usb/gadget/pxa27x_udc.ko
kernel/drivers/usb/gadget/g_serial.ko: kernel/drivers/usb/gadget/pxa27x_udc.ko
kernel/drivers/usb/gadget/pxa27x_udc.ko:
kernel/drivers/usb/core/usbcore.ko:
kernel/drivers/usb/host/ohci-hcd.ko: kernel/drivers/usb/core/usbcore.ko
kernel/drivers/usb/storage/usb-storage.ko: kernel/drivers/usb/core/usbcore.ko
kernel/drivers/scsi/scsi_mod.ko
kernel/drivers/pcmcia/pxa2xx_balloon3.ko: kernel/drivers/pcmcia/pxa2xx_core.ko
kernel/drivers/pcmcia/pcmcia_core.ko
kernel/drivers/pcmcia/pxa2xx_core.ko: kernel/drivers/pcmcia/pcmcia_core.ko
kernel/drivers/pcmcia/pcmcia_core.ko:
....

The modes are there eg.
/lib/modules/2.6.31-pxa270/kernel/drivers/usb/core/usbcore.ko

Would modprobing work properly if these were full path names?
