A proposal, adding an (identical) note to 6.3.4.2 (guided partitioning) and 6.3.4.3 (manual partitioning), two places, where we are talking about ESP: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- To be future-safe, you should not go with an ESP partition smaller than 768-1000 MB these days. Otherwise you risk running into problems, when it comes to kernel upgrades via UKIs or firmware upgrades of your PC's devices later.
Or if you use systemd-boot and the Boot Loader Specification (BLS) layout. The BLS requires to install kernel and initramfs images into the ESP (unless you have a separate Extended Boot Loader partition on the same drive mounted on /boot but this is not supported by Debian kernel packages yet AFAIK).
