Since I don't know of anybody else doing such a thing, I've begun work on the port of debian-installer to the Alpha platform. I've got most things built, but at the moment I'm struggling to get the kernel+initrd pruned down to a small enough size to fit on a floppy. What is expected to be available in the initrd during the install process (i.e. what can I safely leave out of the initrd)?
