Mika,

Yes, I used make modules_install
modprobe returns an error:
modprobe: chdir(2.6.24.4): No such file or directory

So, I uses insmod with the .ko files.

I was able to get the modules loaded.
I had to load usbserial.ko first.

Anyway now lsmod shows this:
ftdi_sio 20168 0 - Live 0xbf03c000
usbserial 19056 1 ftdi_sio, Live 0xbf036000
usb_storage 23072 0 - Live 0xbf02f000
ehci_hcd 22028 0 - Live 0xbf028000
usbcore 74268 4 ftdi_sio,usbserial,usb_storage,ehci_hcd, Live 0xbf014000
sd_mod 15504 0 - Live 0xbf00f000
scsi_mod 55372 2 usb_storage,sd_mod, Live 0xbf000000

I am still having difficulty getting the FTDI device to be recognized.  I'm not 
sure what to do next.
