anyways thats not the problem ,

Yes it is. It is a major mistake to ignore one problem and to try  to
continue and then complain about other, later issues.

Fix one problem at a time.

Do not try to continue before fixing the console problem.

i am using r
amdisk_image.gz provided by eldk , and i have configured kernel wit intial
ramdisk support , i have attachec the config file below , and also the boot
ing messages in another file . as i chnages the console from smc2 to scc4 f
rom uboot to linux may be intial message is not clear , 

It is not only not clear, but unreadable. Like most of your  message,
btw. Please fix your mailer.

i always get ker
nel panic VFS unable to mount root fs , is there something else i need to d
o or i am missing very important configuartion , please throw some light

Which exact boot arguments did you pass?


You configure for a MBX board - is this *really*  one  of  these  old
door stoppers?

Try removing devfs support and CONFIG_CMDLINE_BOOL and CONFIG_CMDLINE
from your configuration.
