I just use initrd, i've compiled kernel with genkernel.<br>

I'm trying to look row for row if there's some diff.<br>

i've upgraded kernel from 3.12.13 to 3.12.20. <br>
I've make a oldconfig as usual, but with new kernel the boot
blocks at the begining to the ramdisk loading. <br>
I've tried with other 3.12.2x with the same negative results.

I use grub2 with systemd. <br>

Is your '/usr' partition housed on a filesystem of its own, or
does it reside on the '/' partition?<br>

"For systems where all necessary files and tools reside on the
same file system, the <code>init</code> application can
perfectly control the further boot process. But when multiple
file systems are defined (or more exotic installations are
done), this might become a bit more tricky:
<ul>
<li> When the <tt style="font-family: monospace;">/usr</tt>
partition is on a separate file system, tools and drivers
that have files stored within <tt style="font-family:
monospace;">/usr</tt> cannot be used unless <tt
style="font-family: monospace;">/usr</tt> is available. If
those tools are needed to make <tt style="font-family:
monospace;">/usr</tt> available, then we cannot boot up
the system. </li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li> If the root file system is encrypted, then the Linux
kernel will not be able to find the <code>init</code>
application, resulting in an unbootable system. </li>
</ul>
<p>The solution for this problem has since long been to use an <i>initrd</i>
(initial root device)."<br>
</p>
<p>Did you run a diff on your 3.12.13/.config and
3.12.13/.config, to make sure you didn't overlook anything to
do with the systemd-related config options?<br>

Googling for 'gentoo linux kernel gets stuck at ramdisk loading',
returned the following gentoo specific results. See if that helps
pin down the problem:<br>
