Nothing strange:

	cdboot.img - cd boot image used for most installs
	cdboot-ja.img - cd boot w/ japanese support
	initrd.img - initrd from cdboot.img
	initrd-ja.img - initrd from cdboot-ja.img
	vmlinuz - kernel from cdboot.img (and cdboot-ja.img); right from
		  the kernel-BOOT package

If you search for these things in mk-images.i386 you'll find the start
of the magic to create them.
