Umm, I think you need to check your facts.  genkernel creates a gzip'd
CPIO archive named "initramfs-genkernel-arch-versionstring"...

So the command 'genkernel initrd' creates a file called
'initramfs-...'  which contains files called etc/initrd.defaults and
etc/initrd.scripts.  Poor naming conventions but it looks like an
initrd to me.
