I had an issue with the same symptoms. It turned out that after some builds, the initramfs would contain empty files instead of links to busybox. In my case, the only way I could get it to work consistently was to patch genkernel to use symbolic links instead, when setting up the initramfs. -- Åsmund Grammeltvedt Snap TV
