I figured out what's the problem: Since I wanted to try out booting with
DOC first, I didn't prepare the C library. But my busybox was compiled
with dynamically linking, it's init could not be started and resulted in
the kernel panic.

Now I compiled busybox with static linking and it works.

Thanks for your help!
