Check that: ls -l /dev/{grf[0-2],mouse[01],kbd} shows crw-rw-rw permissions
for all files.

To find out what is going on in such cases, there are two good ideas:
1/ redirect stderr and stdout to a file:
   xinit -- ./Xamiga24 -mode 4 >logfile 2>&1
2/ if that doesn't help you yet, run the server with tracing enabled:
   ktrace -i xinit -- ./Xamiga24 -mode 4
   (-i also traces children)
   then look at the output of kdump
