Thanks for bothering to report this. Which version of genkernel do you have installed?

Sorry, meant to add that to my initial report - 3.4.10.902

For now, I've added 'initramfs' as an alias to 'ramdisk' in git. The man page is horribly out of date. There are a ton of new features that have been added to genkernel in the last year that aren't documented in there (but they are in --help).

Both initramfs and ramdisk are now documented as actions:
