Hi,
Jonathan Kamens<j...@kamens.us> (2024-07-21):
Something changed recently in testing which caused the size of my
initrd to go up A Lot, e.g., on one computer from 70MB to 248MB. As a
result my boot partition was no longer big enough to handle two extant
kernels plus the new kernel files being built by an install, so I had
to reinstall my laptop from scratch to grow the boot partition.
Have you tried comparing before/after to see where this increase comes
from? Checking the compression settings would also make sense.
Looks like a whole bunch of new firmware files were added:
