It's not just lvm2. I think it must be a change in initramfs-tools as I also get an installation failure when installing current testing and that still installs 2.6.25. And the initrd I got with my initial armel install which also used lvm2 did fit in flash. After setting MODULES=dep for the new install I get: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2670212 Aug 6 01:46 initrd.img-2.6.25-2-orion5x -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4212645 Aug 6 01:30 initrd.img-2.6.25-2-orion5x.bak After this change the installation completed successfully. Minor issue: the flash-kernel udeb does not clear its progress bar on error.
