I decided add to the fun by trying this out on the RPi 3B+. (Previous efforts having been on the Pi Zero 2W.)
I followed the instructions above with one minor deviation: I didn't regenerate the previous kernel (7.0.0-1010 in this case) because it was already over 60 MB and thus looked OK. After running flash-kernel and rebooting: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 27 Jun 3 01:05 /boot/initrd.img -> initrd.img-7.0.0-1011-raspi -rw------- 1 root root 63M May 19 13:53 /boot/initrd.img-7.0.0-1010-raspi -rw------- 1 root root 63M Jun 24 09:45 /boot/initrd.img-7.0.0-1011-raspi lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 27 May 30 07:28 /boot/initrd.img.old -> initrd.img-7.0.0-1010-raspi and uname -a Linux mahanga 7.0.0-1011-raspi #11-Ubuntu SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Tue May 26 13:56:04 UTC 2026 aarch64 GNU/Linux Evidently, that extra bit of RAM is enough to run dracut properly. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2155094 Title: RPi 3B, Zero 2W, 4B: New boot assets in /boot/firmware/new failed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/2155094/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
