Ok, now I actually read the backtrace :-), so I have another theory.

It appears that your init (or whatever is used in place of init on the 
initrd) is simply exiting (by doing the exit() syscall, seen in the 
backtrace). init should never exit, as it's the ancestor of every 
process on the system. You should check what the script/binary is 
doing, perhaps by adding some debugging info to it?

Best regards,
