I can confirm that 0.143 solve this issue
case 1) initramfs-tools 0.142, no firmware-nvidia-graphics
$ ls -lh /boot/efi/xxxx/6.9.6/initrd.img-6.9.6
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 74M 2024-07-22 22:43 /boot/efi/xxxx/6.9.6/initrd.img-6.9.6
^^^
case 2) initramfs-tools 0.142, firmware-nvidia-graphics 20240610-1 installed
$ sudo apt install firmware-nvidia-graphics
$ sudo update-initramfs -k 6.9.6 -u
$ ls -lh /boot/efi/xxxx/6.9.6/initrd.img-6.9.6
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 244M 2024-07-24 18:51 /boot/efi/xxxx/6.9.6/initrd.img-6.9.6
^^^^
case 3) initramfs-tools-* 0.143, firmware-nvidia-graphics 20240610-1 installed
$ ls -lh /boot/efi/xxxx/6.9.6/initrd.img-6.9.6
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 114M 2024-07-24 18:56 /boot/efi/xxxx/6.9.6/initrd.img-6.9.6
^^^^
0.143 0.142 nvidia blob initrd size
====== ===== =========== ===========
case 1) X 74M
case 2) X X 244M
case 3) X X 114M
size of initrd of case 3) is bigger that the size of initrd of case 1), but it is expected
because in case 1) I don't have the nvidia binary at all. However case 3) is half of the
case 2), and this is right because I have the nvidia binary but I don't have the multiple
copy in the initrd.

To be fair you wrote:
) There was a relatively recent upload of initramfs-tools 0.143 to
) *Experimental* and I'm curious if that would help in this case.
So it was not really clear that it was a solution; it seemed that it *could* be
a possible solution; this to explain why nobody care it too much.
Anyhow, 0.143 solve this issue.

Installing initramfs-tools_0.143_all.deb and initramfs-tools-core_0.143_all.deb (plus dependency dracut-install) seems to have fixed the issue for me too (although I haven't rebooted yet). I had to run "update-initramfs -k all -u" to get it to regenerate the previous kernels, apt only managed the latest one. On an nvidia+mediatek+intel+realtek system I now have: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 108M Jul 25 00:15 initrd.img-6.9.10-amd64 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 108M Jul 25 00:15 initrd.img-6.9.9-amd64 Thanks! -- Simon John
