I would like to know whether we get to a prompt on other PA2.0 machines as well. When testing, please keep in mind most "kernel doesn't print anytihng" problems are problems in the .config rather than kernel bugs. Start with the defconfig and modify as little as possible. Also, the most likely cause for non-reproducible failures is page colouring problems so try 3-4 times. Anyway, on Lasi-based machines such as the C360 you should be able to do anything you can do on the 712 right now (-ls, fork() but not exec(), rebooting the machine with SysRq-B), just a lot faster.
