it is running out of memory.

how big is your initramfs?

DE2 has only 8MB sdram.

the rootfs from buildroot take up a lot of memory.

what is the result of goahead with uClinux-dist-test ? which will use fewer memory.

You should try to reduce the initramfs size.

put some of user program and data onto other storages, eg, jffs2 on CFI, usb disk, or nfs.
