The problem was that I used i686-optimized system to build PicoBSD for i586. I turned off all optimizations for building of Pico so kernel and object files for crunched binary were built right. Kernel was linked OK but crunched binary was linked using system /usr/lib that is optimized for i686 here. So kernel booted normally and init died at once. I already have a world built for i586 so I just installed it into new direcory on my i686 system, chrooted into that directory and made new floppy there. And it boots as expected now. So, it would be nice to have an opportunity to cross-compile PicoBSD without having to rebuilt a whole world just to get 10 libraries.
