Thanks for the pointer. I've started down that path after writing the
email. It seems buildinstall calls mk-images, etc, etc. Looks like I
just need to get the kernel-lt rpms in place and possibly modify
mk-images to look for it.
It's been a while since I've had to dig into this sort of thing.

I believe that is all generated via the buildinstall script from the
anaconda-runtime rpm under /usr/lib/anaconda-runtime.
If memory serves it spits out usage information if you don't provide any
args.

Is there a resource/information/script on generating the initrd.img
used in the SL5 installation media? I'm trying to inject kernel-lt
from ELrepo in place of the usual one. Replacing vmlinuz is easy, but
I'm not sure where to start getting the initrd updated with the
appropriate kernel modules.
I already know how to unpack the initrd, but I'm unsure how/where the
modules included in it are selected, gathered, and supporting files
created.
