That gives: With zstd: # file initrd* initrd.img-5.10.0-7-amd64: ASCII cpio archive (SVR4 with no CRC) # l initrd* -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 26M May 30 06:21 initrd.img-5.10.0-7-amd64 Changing to gzip: # update-initramfs -u ... # file initrd* initrd.img-5.10.0-7-amd64: ASCII cpio archive (SVR4 with no CRC) # l initrd* -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 33M May 31 15:54 initrd.img-5.10.0-7-amd64 Cheers, Chris.
