The initrd image is built for your system when the kernel
image is installed. It is cusomised for your system, and
thus can't be shipped as a binary. You can modify how
mkinitrd generates this image using the files in /etc/mkinird
And you can manually re-create the initrd image by invoking
mkinitrd on the command line.
