You could probably build a "virtual initramfs":
- linux tells the bootloader what folder the modules live
- bootloader just puts them all in memory
- linux just picks what it needs.
That's all the initramfs is anyways. The point is there's no reason to prebuild an image from inside Linux, you can just have grub assemble a simple fs on the fly.
