linux-ck on HP Chromebook 14 freezed at ``loading initial ramdisk''

Hi, all:

I am a kernel newbie and got the stock kernel working on HP Chromebook 14(falco).
The quiet kernel parameter is not set at grub.cfg and nothing shows up.
The mkinitcpio.conf should working since I didn't have my hands on it.

I have did search on this, but my situation is different from replacing HDD hardware,
it's the fresh compiled kernel is not working for me.
What can I do for build a working linux-ck kernel for HP Chromebook 14?

Please help,
-djh

FYI:

[djh@snow linux-ck]$ du -sh /boot/*
11M	/boot/grub
4.0M	/boot/initramfs-linux-ck-fallback.img
3.4M	/boot/initramfs-linux-ck.img
18M	/boot/initramfs-linux-fallback.img
3.6M	/boot/initramfs-linux.img
du: cannot read directory ‘/boot/lost+found’: Permission denied
12K	/boot/lost+found
4.1M	/boot/vmlinuz-linux
3.9M	/boot/vmlinuz-linux-ck

How to recur:

cd /dev/shm
packer -G linux-ck  # To download PKGBUILD, *.install metadata only and extract all
cd linux-ck
# Modify PKGBUILD
* _makenconfig=y
*  _1k_HZ_ticks=       # After a peek on [url=http://ck.kolivas.org/patches/bfs/bfs-configuration-faq.txt]bfs-configuration-faq[/url] I think Chromebook the notebook [i]should[/i] have 300 HZ setting
* #_NUMAdisable=
* _localmodcfg=y       # I got modprobed-db from AUR installed
* _use_current=
* _BFQ_enable_=y
makepkg
# adjst kernel with nconfig
* Processer family -> Haswell
makepkg -i
sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
sudo reboot

Update:
the PKGBUILD config of
- 300HZ tick rate
- tickless
- no localmodcfg
- use_current (.config)
- BFQ_enabled
got me no luck.
