I'm pretty sure that its not a problem with the filesystem. I'm using exactly this filesystem for multiple other ARM based boards as well. And all other boards (most of them with buildin ethernet controller instead of USB connected) have no problem mounting/booting from it. BTW: The filesystem is from the ELDK 5.3 [1][2]. You could download/install it yourself. >From your log I can see, that you are using a slightly different board than I am ("Beagle xM Rev C" vs. "Beagle Rev C1/C2/C3"). So its a different OMAP variant. Could this perhaps make a difference? Do you by chance have the "old" Beagleboard (non-xM) at hand for another test?
