[BusyBox] boot problem

Do you have the required libraries on the target filesystem?
Or is busybox compiled static?

Use "file" to see if a binary is linked static or not..
And use objdump -x | grep NEEDED to look for required libraries.

Do you have /sbin/init or /bin/sh on your target filesystem?

Good luck!
