how about something slightly different...

2.6 kernel initrd's are cpio archives. And the kernelm supports catting
multiple of these together and the kernel then untars then one after
another...

soo... all that's needed is having a /boot/initrd.local image that
mkinitrd always appends to the initrd it creates.. and inside that image
you can do what you want.

And then maybe some tool to create that initrd.local from some dir or
something.
