Problem with starting up 2.4.21 kernel

After "Transferring control to Linux (at address 00000000)" nothing seems happen (see below). From BDI2000 I discovered that it shorlty after locks at 0xc0092aec address (the MPC866ADS eval board used).
I tried to turn on the kernel hacking options and turn off everything I don't need right now but it does not help a lot.
Could anybody give me a clue what this could be about.

Thank you in advance for any help.
