It might be one of our favourites, i.e. wrong ram initialization.
When enabling the caches, the CPU generates burst accesses for the
first time.  It is pretty common (on this mailing list) that not quite
correctly initialized RAM works for single beat but fails for bursts.
So my advice would be to check the RAM init.

Is is really a standard lite5200 board that you use?

Cheers
