Ah, I see. the initrd is created at install time, not at .deb package
building time.
I inspected the generated .deb file and indeed, there is no initrd.img in
the .deb file - the initrd is created when you actually install the package
on the target system, which means it's the target system that

installed by dpkg when I install the generated kernel-image .deb file that I
created using make-kpkg (--initrd binary)..

I've seen some posts on debian-devel from a while back which indicates
some of you (Robert Millan) you've build a kernel using cdbs. I'm
