I saw an article on this in Debian weekly news about a year ago discussing initrd creaters. Yard is deprecated as in it is not used in Debian anymore by default. initramfs which is a new feature of 2.6.15+ I seem to recall (it could have come in earlier) is the default these days. apt-cache search initramfs I think the package is initramfs-tools but I run ubuntu these days and aren't logged into a box to check.
