The situation can be solved by reading the error messages, and trying
to understand what they  might  mean.  "unable  to  open  an  initial
console"  means that the kernel was not able to open the /dev/console
device. Why not? Maybe it does not exist? Did you check if there is a
/dev/console in your target's root filesystem?

You are using the ELDK but did not read / follow  the  documentation,
i.  e. you did not run the ELDK_MAKEDEV scriot (and probably also not
the ELDK_FIXOWNER script). Please see
