I am marking this bug as fixed. The initrd with MODULES=most is 15 MB on
Ubuntu 24.04. This is due to
initramfs-tools (0.142ubuntu23) noble; urgency=medium
[ Daniel van Vugt ]
* hooks/framebuffer: Only add simple/tiny framebuffer drivers. This is to
limit the size of initrd when FRAMEBUFFER=y is soon enabled for desktop
installations (LP: #1970069, #1869655).
initramfs-tools (0.142ubuntu8) mantic; urgency=medium
[ Benjamin Drung ]
* mkinitramfs:
- Put compressed kernel modules and firmware files in an uncompressed cpio
(LP: #2028567)
Please re-open in case you still have problems on Ubuntu 24.04.
** Changed in: initramfs-tools (Ubuntu)
Status: Confirmed => Fix Released
