Recommended initramfs is initramfs-bootmenu-image, which are used by haret-derived loader already. You can build it with OE, and again, it is expected that standalone initramfs will be provided for download soon too. Exact commands to use those with HH.org bootloader are up to you though, and please share them with the list once you'll have working setup.
