You are using the wrong boot loader and/or the wrong image. vmlinux is just the Linux kernel - it expects to receive certain parameters in registers, and boot arameters in a command line. The EPPCBug boot loader does not know anything about Linux, so the kernel crashes because of missing / bad parameters. Either you will have to use a boot loader that knows about Linux and the parameters needed to boot it (like U-Boot), or you could use a wrapper (bootstrap loader) around the Linux kernel like what you get when you use the arch/ppc/boot/images/zImage file.
