Hello,
       I am trying to port android (Eclair) to a hardware platform
using Atmel's AT91SAM9261 processor.I am using linux kernel (2.6.29)
with the board specific and android related patches.I have built a
root file system for android according the link below.
http://free-electrons.com/blog/android-beagle/
I have copied the root file system to a USB memory stick and using
that for booting.my kernel boot parameters are

setenv bootargs noinitrd root=/dev/sda1 rootdelay=20 init=/init
console=ttySAC0,115200  androidboot.console=ttySAC0

The problem i am facing is android starts booting but there is a
kernel panic halfway.There is no error message and i am unable to
identify the source of the crash.However i can see the ANDROID text in
the LCD panel.please find the logs below

<6>init: Created socket '/dev/socket/keystore' with mode '666', user
'0', group '0'
init: Created socket '/dev/socket/keystore' with mode '666', user '0',
group '0'
<0>Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!
Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!

My doubts are
1) What is the next step that should occur after processing init.rc?
2) Is it possible to get extra information why the crash is occuring?
3) How to use strace and logcat when the kernel crashes?
