Package: initramfs-tools Version: 0.139 Severity: wishlist Hi, the net/usb kernel drivers are missing in the generated initramfs, as they are excluded from auto_add_modules()'s net selection. This means it's not possible to boot via PXE/network boot using a USB WiFi driver (which isn't uncommon with recent generations of notebooks, which no longer provide ethernet NICs). I'll provide a patch/MR as soon I receive a bug number from the BTS. regards -mika-
