On x86, and ELF image file may be stored as a coreboot payload.  This image file may be a kernel or a kernel+initrd.

Documentation on this has been started on the coreboot wiki:
http://www.coreboot.org/Mkelfimage

We have seen success using the mkelfimage utility to construct a kernel+initrd image using the micro-image OpenEmbedded image as an initrd.
http://www.se-eng.com/wiki/index.php/Open_Embedded_Setup

Build tested using Ubuntu 10.04 x86_64-linux targeting i686-oe-linux using a one-off of the i686-generic.conf machine targeting a 4MB flash part.
