My /usr partition in on the / partition.

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

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

Hi, i've upgraded kernel from 3.12.13 to 3.12.20.
I've make a oldconfig as usual, but with new kernel the boot blocks at the begining to the ramdisk loading.
I've tried with other 3.12.2x with the same negative results.
I use grub2 with systemd.

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

http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Initramfs/HOWTO
"For systems where all necessary files and tools reside on the same file system, the |init| 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:

  * When the /usr partition is on a separate file system, tools and
    drivers that have files stored within /usr cannot be used unless
    /usr is available. If those tools are needed to make /usr
    available, then we cannot boot up the system.

  * If the root file system is encrypted, then the Linux kernel will
    not be able to find the |init| application, resulting in an
    unbootable system.

The solution for this problem has since long been to use an /initrd/ (initial root device)."

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?
