Looks ok.

One possibility is that your kernels do not have the ttyAM driver
included in them.

Another is a problem that made 64MB ts7250's do the same thing due to
its weird memory bank placement: 8 8M banks at 0x0[0145]000000 and
0xe[0145]000000. The vanilla kernel can't map such distant physical
addresses and clags at the same point as you are seeing. Maybe the '60
is the same.

Try adding mem= to your boot options. If that makes it boot,
then either you can just use part of the RAM with a string of mem=
options or (better) apply the discontigmem kernel patch to allow banks
of memory at very distant physical addresses.
