[Buildroot] AT91SAM9263 JFFS2 problems

Hi, has anyone seen problems booting an AT91SAM9263-EK board with the JFFS2 filesystem created by buildroot? I used to be able to boot no problem with an older version of buildroot, but not with the latest. I'm getting the following kernel panic:
VFS: Mounted root (jffs2 filesystem).
Freeing init memory: 136K
Warning: unable to open an initial console.
Kernel panic - not syncing: No init found. Try passing init= option to kernel.
I've loaded the NAND flash as follows:
0x00000000 - at91bootstrap
0x00020000 - u-boot
0x00200000 - kernel
0x00400000 - JFFS2
My bootargs are "mem=64M console=ttyS0,115200 root=/dev/mtdblock1 rw rootfstype=jffs2"
The strange thing is if I change the bootargs to root=/dev/mtdblock0, I get a ton of jffs2 oob and ecc errors, but after a while, it gives me the login prompt.
My JFFS2 memory type options are:
Page Size: 0x800
Erase Block Size: 0x20000
Not using clean marker.
These options never gave me a problem before.
The only other thing I can think of is a message I get after a build of buildroot about skipping dev, tmp, and etc while creating the RFS:
table='target/device/Atmel/root/device_table.txt'
mkfs.jffs2: skipping device_table entry '/dev': no parent directory!
mkfs.jffs2: skipping device_table entry '/tmp': no parent directory!
mkfs.jffs2: skipping device_table entry '/etc': no parent directory!
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 7098064 Sep 23 09:47 /usr/arm/buildroot/binaries/at91sam9263ek/rootfs.arm-20080923.jffs2
rm -f /usr/arm/buildroot/project_build_arm/at91sam9263ek/.fakeroot*
Something very strange is going on. Anyone else see this or have any suggestions?
Thanks, Matt.
