kernel hang

Do u get any message after this?
I mean kernel oops.

If not, do you have the filesystems properly selected (eg. ext2 ext3)
It may be a bug in a driver...but still u should get a oops message

You need to pass init=/some_file_name as you are using a /dev/ram
<<Kernel command line: root=/dev/ram console=ttyAM0

My own bootargs for example:
setenv bootargs console=ttyS0,115200 root=/dev/ram rw init=/linuxrc;bootm 0xa0000000 0xa2000000



Lets try this!
