[Buildroot] System seems to hang at banner

The last kernel message I get is:
"[    0.937209] random: dd urandom read with 12 bits of entropy 
available"
Then there's about an 8sec pause before I get only part of the "Welcome 
to Buildroot" banner. I get differing amounts; but, usually just 
"Welcome ". I have tried various values for 
BR2_TARGET_GENERIC_GETTY_PORT and its associated baudrate. I am not 
using the output/target directory; I am using the initramfs built into 
the kernel.
My board uses a Freescale Kinetis K70. I have the [v3,##/10] ARM 
patchset from Thomas Petazzoni applied.

Any ideas how I can go about troubleshooting this issue? Is there more 
information required?

Thanks.
