I can't remember ever having used one of those. I'm only familiar with External initramfs images (for details see Documentation/filesystems/ramfs-rootfs-initramfs.txt too). These are often also refered to as "initrd" (which I find confusing). > and not need initrd= parameter. External initramfs images can be loaded by the lguest example launch application with the --initrd option. For what it's worth, in your case (which I'm not familiar with) I'd try things like: - use the kernel with the built-in initramfs image for a regular (non virtual) boot; - add some "sleep" to the init script in the initramfs image (maybe the echo can not be seen but you might notice a _long_ pause); or - try the same initramfs as an external image.
