Since I can not find /proc/mtab I assume you mean /etc/mtab.
# cat /etc/mtab
/dev/sdc1 /home ext4   rw 0 0
/dev/sdc2 /var      ext4   rw 0 0
/dev/sda3 /           none  rw 0 0
/dev/sda2 /boot   vfat    rw 0 0

For generating the initramfs I loosely followed the "Configuring the Linux 
kernel" chapter of the handbook, as well as the "EFI stub kernel" Wiki-page:
# genkernel --no-compress-initramfs --install initramfs

The initramfs gets compiled into the kernel via CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD 
(CONFIG_INITRAMFS_SOURCE).



Since the root-partition is mounted read-only I can't provide any log files. 
Also despite not shown /dev, /proc and /sys seem to be populated, but emerge 
doesn't seem to be happy with it:
# emerge
Failed to validate a sane '/dev'
bash process sibstitution doesn't work; this may be an indication of a broken 
'/dev/fd'
