That could be it, yes.

It also looks like you are using a custom kernel (4.8.11-1-miz), so make
sure to build that kernel with initramfs-tools support.

Bug#848204: liblz4.so.1 is required for booting, but install in /usr/lib

[郭溢譞]

Package: liblz4-1
Version: 0.0~r131-2
Severity: important

Hello,

In a recent reboot, I found that my system got stuck at cryptsetup part
(I have encrypted / and /usr), with an error message from /bin/ps saying
that liblz4.so.1 is not found.

It appears that /bin/ps is linked to liblz4, and is required early
during booting, but liblz4 is installed in
  /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/liblz4.so.1.7.1
thus unavailable before /usr is mounted.

$ aptitude why procps liblz4-1:amd64
i   procps  Dependslibprocps6
i A libprocps6  Dependslibsystemd0 (>= 209)
i A libsystemd0 PreDepends liblz4-1 (>= 0.0~r113)

After booting to recovery mode and copying
  /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/liblz4.so.1.7.1
to
  /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/liblz4.so.1,
the system boots normally again.

Therefore, please considering install the library to /lib instead of
/usr/lib.

Thanks,
Yixuan
