Hi Adrian,AFAIR update-initramfs -u only replaces the /lib/modules directory structure in an existing initramfs image, and leaves the rest of the files unchanged. But I admit I haven't tried that on installer images...
If that fails, manually unpacking the image and repacking using cpio after replacing modules (or adding any) could be another option. That should work (though I'm not sure whether module dependencies generated on a non-m68k system will work).
Modules that debian-installer does not know about would have to be loaded manually from a shell (if that is still supported).
What am I missing here? Cheers, Michael Am 12.06.2023 um 17:36 schrieb John Paul Adrian Glaubitz:

I will try to prepare the changes for the upcoming weekend. However, due to the current freeze for Debian Bookworm, I cannot commit anything.Even so, it shouldn't be hard to generate an initrd image that matches the kernel in the snapshot... or maybe I am wrong? I remember trying and having trouble getting compiled a new Linux/m68k kernel with a reasonable size for the Amiga (actually, the size of the snapshots).update-initramfs -u -k <kernel-version> should do that (if the missing modules are included in the modules package for your kernel).We’re talking about an initrd that includes debian-installer. You cannot build these that way. You have to build the debian-installer package. Adrian
