Seems your board is unsupported.

Nope, at the time it crashes there's not much Linux going on. Look at the
arch/m68k/kernel/head.S file to figure where approximately the crash
happens. I'd guess around setting up memory mapping, or activating the
MMU.

The new memory control chip may explain this. Please report the details of
this crash to linux-m68k@lists.linux-m68k.org (CC: set), and be sure to
include some information about the differences between the two board
revisions.
