I've made one manually that does evms_activate and mounts the root
filesystem under Xen.

I sent various patches towards the maintainer of genkernel (Tim Yamin)
which would allow it to work with Xen, but he didn't like some of them
too much it seemed.  Guess he's not a Xen user.  So I eventually just
gave up and made an initrd by hand.

Making the initrd by hand isn't hard, it's mainly making sure that
your binaries are compiled static and then whipping together a script
to mount your root partition and pivot_root to it.
