The support is in oe-core, so checking the yocto docs is a good starting point:

http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/current/mega-manual/mega-manual.html

And in particular:

"core-image-minimal-initramfs: A core-image-minimal image that has the
Minimal RAM-based Initial Root Filesystem (initramfs) as part of the
kernel, which allows the system to find the first “init” program more
efficiently."

There is also meta-initramfs:

Cheers,

Bruce
