I'm trying to update my initram-fs, but if fails.

I'm on a fresh install of debian jessie, using EFI and full disk encryption. After the first boot, the keyboard works in GRUB, but not to enter my crypto psw. I read up and found that I should add:

hid
usbhid
hid_generic
ohci_pci

to /etc/initramfs-tools/modules . and then run update-initramfs -u

So i fired up a live stick, unlocked my disk, chrooted into the box (using the commands in the gist) and made the change. Unfortunately, the update-initramfs -u command fails due to "mkinitramfs: failed to determine device for /"
