You don't have any serial ports here (it doesn't list ttyS0 nor ttyS1).

Error in the ramdisk - tty1 doesn't exist, so this is expected.

As is this for the above reason.

Its not hanging. Its sleeping. 5 minutes later, you'll get another load

Your root nfs is working fine. Firstly, compile the kernel with support
for 21285 serial ports. Then add a dev entry for ttyFB0:
cd ebsa285-root
mknod dev/ttyFB0 c 204 4
Edit the inittab to start a getty on /dev/ttyFB0.
