OK, now we know what kernel your using but we also need to know what
version of BusyBox your using.

The error message that the kernel prints out is really helpful here. 
Just cut and paste it into the e-mail.

There are also a few things you should check:
1. Is init compiled into BusyBox?
B. Do you have a proper /etc/inittab?  (check the documentation bb-init
is _not_ like sysvinit)

good luck,
Andy
