Device file /dev/console doesn't seem to exist in your rootfs.

Strange because /dev/console exists in my ext2.img.

It seems that you don't have an executable called /bin/busybox in your
rootfs. Your kernel command line seems to have "init=/bin/busybox"
included?

But, hmmm, it is very strange, at least in your uboot bootargs there is
no such string. Is it because of some default kernel command line (set
before compiling the kernel)?

I simply forgot to write them here (because I didn't knew if they were
valid) but I 've tried with init=/sbin/init and get the same result !

Rebooting in 180 seconds..

Shall I explicitly give the init ? What should be ... init=/sbin/init,
init=/bin/busybox ????

The rootfs which comes with ELDK "starts" with /sbin/init - it does not
use busybox, right (as far as I can remember)? So you need to specify
"init=/sbin/init" on your kernel command line.

I've tried with /sbin/init and the same !!
