Also at least Debian doesn't (yet) support a common initramfs for their

have a per kernel initramfs that is automatically build and updated
whenever anything in the initrmafs changes. Not often, but still too
often, the initramfs then doesn't work.
Does any other distribution allow building kernel image rpms that will
use a common initramfs for all kernels?
you can do something like this with dracut
actually you need two initrds, one kernel independant that contains
scripts and binaries
the other one, kernel dependant that contains modules (you can skip it
if you don't need modules to mount root)
then use grub commandline to load both
