This is exactly what this thread is about. Currently there is little to be gained by this approach. It involves extra work because the USB has to be partitioned with at least a FAT32 partition for the kernel and and ext3 partition for the rootsfs, whereas the current setup work with a "standard" partitioning with just one FAT32 partition. The only two advantages I see with this approach are more reliable booting and the possibility to change E2/Neutrino more easily.

You do not mention what version of the kernel you have built: the flash version or the USB version. You need the flash version for this approach. I think the cause of the hang can be read a few lines before the end in the log: the BPA2 partitioning runs into problems. The command line contains a bigphysarea specification that may conflict with the one in the kernel setup (see the setup patch file in patches/build-enigma2/linux-sh4-hs7819_setup_stm24_0217.patch, or the already patched setup.c in build_tmp/..linux../arch/sh/board/arch/sh/boards/mach-hdk7111
While working on the adb_box, I noticed strange things happening when bigphysarea= is used on the command line including stopping serial output. Try leaving it out and playing with the BPA2 setup in setup.c of the board.
