      The portage update from the 20th August 2014 changed the use flag mask for the stable profile and disabled the static use flag for the lvm2 package:

      diff --git a/profiles/base/package.use.stable.mask b/profiles/base/package.use.stable.mask

      Therefore re-emerging lvm2 after the update removes the /sbin/lvm.static file which genkernel depends on to create the ramdisk image.

      workaround: use current profile ?
