I don't know about any known "hang problem" or such, but at that point, 
normally your root filesystem is mounted and /sbin/init is executed. So if it 
hangs there, probably something is wrong with your root filesystem.
Could you tell more about what board/kernel/sdk/etc... you are using? Where is 
"/" supposed to be mounted from? NFS? flash? initrd?
