Are you using systemd in your initramfs (whatever implementation you are
using)? I just tested with dracut using systemd dracut module and it
does not work - it hangs forever waiting for device. Of course, there is
no way to abort it and go into command line ...

Oh, wait - what device names are you using? I'm using mount by UUID and
this is where the problem starts - /dev/disk/by-uuid/xxx will not appear
unless all devices have been seen once ...

... and it still does not work even if I change it to root=/dev/sda1
explicitly because sda1 will *not* be announced as "present" to systemd
until all devices have been seen once ...

So no, it does not work with systemd *in initramfs*. Absolutely.
