If you, like me, prefere to compile your own kernel, there's still an
easy way to create a initrd for your kernel: with genkernel
I use this command to compile my pre-configured kernel

genkernel --no-clean --no-mrproper \
    --makeopts=-j2 --loglevel=5 --install --symlink all

To include support for disk labels use the switch --disklabel
