While it does not solve the problem as such (it still does not mount any partition but the root-partition in read-only) it explains, why I got these strange outputs. I think the problem might be fstab or the point, where the initramfs gives controll to the kernel. Since if I am not mistaken (I just say what I recall reading while searching for a solution) the initramfs just gets the system running and then the kernel should remount the root-partition.
