You specified the following roottask command line:

==============
module /common/roottask -symbols -lines task modname "loader"
boot_priority 0xA0 allow_cli task modname "bmodfs" attached 5 modules
==============

But, as I suspect, you specified -symbols and -lines parameters but not gave fiasco_symbols and fiasco_lines files 
(fiasco debug info) right after roottask as modules. And, because of that, names and log servers, which were right 
after roottask, were treated as Fiasco lines and symbols. So, log and names were not loaded by roottask,  and 
hence, many errors occured because servers can't find names to register at. 

So, I can advice you to remove -symbols and -lines parameters for roottask, or add fiasco_symbols and fiasco_lines 
files (they are in fiasco build directory and are called Lines and Symbols)
