Yes, that was basically my fault, wasted your time on basic thing.
I'm really sorry about that.

Really great news, thanks a lot Peter, actually by adding -n option in
/boot.config solves
the boot problem. It boots now without user intervention both

However should this kind of situation must be documented somewhere,
maybe in FAQ ?
