MPC5200 Linux Init Problem

[Frank Beesley]

I am bringing up a custom board using the MPC5200 and based on the 
Lite5200. We changed from SDR to 128MB of DDR SDRAM and the flash 
interface is now a 32MB, 32-bit wide bus using 2 Strata flash parts. I 
have u-boot-1.1.3 up and running just fine. I have three partitions on 
the flash: 0-uboot, 1-kernel image, 2-jffs file system. The linux kernel 
(DENX based 2.4.25) starts with all the normal messages plus some that I 
added for debugging. It should then start running /sbin/init 
(busybox-1.00, dynamically linked)  but instead I get the following Oops:

VFS: Mounted root (jffs filesystem) 
readonly.

When I change busybox to statically linked I get the following (notice 
some of my debug messages from within busybox showing up now):

1) Why am i getting machine check message - also see the task name is 
messed up.

2) Why are dynamic linking not working, is this a problem with my 
library loader.

3) Why is my init failing to load. this is the same binary and config 
files that was used on a Lite5200 and worked fine.

Any clues to help debug this would be greatly appreciated. I have built 
several different kernel and busybox images with different debug prints 
to help figure this out and I am at a loss. Please CC me as I am not on 
the mailing list OR directly email me and we can post the solution back 
to the list.

Thanks
