Kernel mounted the root file system but can not find any init script. I'm sure that script exists in my ramdisk.img!
I also checked out this and GE863-PRO3 U-BOOT Software User Guide 1VV0300777 Rev. 6 – 2010-01-25.
Any idea or alternative documentation?

Your problem is here:
Busyboxy is like a chameleon. It changes its behavior depending on how you call it. In order to make it act like
init
you have to call itinit
. Change it toinit=/sbin/init
.You also need to make sure that
/sbin/init
is a symlink or hard link to/bin/busybox
inside your ramdisk.img.
