I am attempting much the same thing.
Your problem below is most likely this: Your kernel can not find your root
filesystem. In the case of my 7400 the base kernel does not have the SD kernel
module compiled in so it can't look for it by default on the SD/CF (hda1 is the
default location to look)
I have attempted to use the bootloader_static to point to an --initrd housed in
the SD card (if you look for my previous message) to get around the problem of
not having a MTD accessible with a root file system to no avail. I don't get
the same message as you (my kernel seems to find my initrd), but I also never
get to a login prompt.
I am also not able to get NFS to work due to various protocol errors that may
or may not be my actual NFS server.
So, you need to give your kernel a root= directive of some sort and hope for
better luck than I have had thus far. :)
