Yep, that is one of the things I'm looking at...

Well, I think for next 3.8 kernel build I think I will make ahci, ext4
and btrfs builtin so you can boot without initrd on new hw, and if you
install the kernel in correct place on the "efi" partition, you can
boot the kernel directly without bootloader... :)
