If you used the ramdisk image available from
ftp.netwinder.org/users/n/nico then you can't use the included insmod.
This is a really old insmod expecting a.out module format.
You might replace insmod/rmmod with recent binaries and it'll just work
better.
(I really need to create an updated ramdisk image)...
