Bug#972396: Comment on «initramfs-tools: Installation fails (no space left on device)»
There was some changes with the firmware packages.
firmware-nvidia-graphics was installed automatically on boxes which
don't have a NVIDIA device in their system.
This blows up the initrd images to almost 4 times the size.
If I apt remove firmware-nvidia-graphics the image sizes remain at the
usual 60MB range.
So I don't know what firmware gets included in the images, but for me it
looks that there should be something changed in this magic.
