Maybe yaird can help. Install the yaird package and then add

	ramdisk=mkinitrd.yaird mkinitramfs

to /etc/kernel-img.conf (try to use yaird, if it fails use
initramfs-tools) and then run

	dpkg-reconfigure linux-image-2.6.26-1-amd64

(this is the recommended method for recreating the initrd, because it's
independent of the initrd creator used)

On my system this creates a 1,3M initrd. This should be small enough ;)
