Meaning: 1) bootloader loaded kernel and initrd ok 2) kernel booted ok 3) initrd code started running ok The remaining problem is why USB device mount failed. Kernel may start running initrd code before USB devices are detected. You may say that your computer booted from USB so USB is ok. Well.. that was computer's BIOS and bootloader that accessed that USB device, not linux kernel. Linux kernel also needs to recognize those devices before those devices "exist" to linux kernel. That may take some time when kernel chats with USB devices and becomes convinced that they exists. The fix is to tell initrd code to wait few seconds before it attempts to mount any USB device. This can be achieved by setting INITIALDELAY=3 in your build-initrd.sh configuration. That waits 3 seconds.
