You need to create the /dev/ttyAM0 node ... just look on a working board 
for the major number with 'ls -l /dev/ttyAM0' - i don't have a board 
handy, so i can't tell you the major number at the moment.

The comand to create the node is:

mknod /dev/ttyAM0 c <major> 0

As for mount_devfs_fs failing - i can't suggest too much.

Do you have a /dev directory? ... you could always look in the kernel 
source for mount_devfs_fs() and determine which conditions generate a -2.
