[Buildroot] Problem with buildroot on ARM

I'm having some issues with a rootfs image built through buildroot for an
ARM board. Here is some basic info:


Board: Atmel AT91SAM9260-EK
CPU: ARM926EJ-S rev 5 (v5l)
Kernel: 2.6.21.1 (latest stable)

I'm using the latest buildroot from subversion, r18550.

All is well until after the ramdisk is loaded, then I get a kernel panic.
Any ideas what might be causing this?
