The driver policy file? It is safe to just remove it?

Btw, isn't a bit dangerous to use -kall? The documentation says the kall
will make the change affect all the initramfs on the machine. If the one
actually working gets modified and starts to have problems I could not be
able to boot for good, couldn't?

Just to explore the safest way, if i make a copy of the initramfs actually
present in /boot (/boot/initrd.img-3.16.0-4-amd64 (bad one, not booting)
and /boot/initrd.img-3.2.0-4-amd64 (good one, booting) ), then I do
update-initramfs and it doesn't work, to restore the previous situation,
rewriting the modified initramfs file with the old one is enough? Or
alternatively I can create a new initramfs from scratch and boot that one?
