It is very hard to diagnose such a problem from the distance.  Did you
check whether the network driver for your board works at all reliably,
i.e. can you tftp files successfully?

If this is the case I guess you will need to debug the problems as
netconsole does not have any current known (generic) problems.

Cheers
