Comment:
> You may need to replace the `--bind` with `--rbind` for the `/dev` mount if anything about the Dracut rebuild needs `/dev/pts`, but otherwise this should work fine.

@ahesford Back to void. :D Thanks for your inputs. The culprit was handled with your help. Thanks.

However, I did the following to ease those who come across the same issue.

1. Mounted the HDD partition void root and boot: 
```
sudo mkdir -p /mnt/voidrootboot
sudo mount /dev/sdd6 /mnt/voidrootboot
```
2. Mounted `dev, sys, proc` of the host/rescue OS  for dracut operation:
```
sudo mount --bind /sys/ /mnt/voidrootboot/sys/
sudo mount --bind /proc/ /mnt/voidrootboot/proc/
sudo mount --rbind /dev/ /mnt/voidrootboot/dev/
```
Please note that dracut needs /dev to be recursively mounted for the use of /dev/pts. Kudos to @ahesford for this hint.

4. Chrooted into the mounted partition:
```
chroot /mnt/voidrootboot
```
5. Make necessary changes:
`echo 'omit_dracutmodules+=" zfs "' > /etc/dracut.conf.d/zfs.conf`

Please do not skip the space around the module name, `zfs`. 

6. Rebuild initramfs:
```
sudo xbps-reconfigure -f zfs
```

7. Successfully built and good to go. Back to voidlinux. :D
