*Which* “initrd”? There are many of them. The ones *inside* the ISO image
does not work for loading the ISO image from an existing partition.

If you want to load the ISO image from an existing partition, you must use
the hd-media ones, which I have described already.

It is not clear to me what the current problem is. In your previous
message you mentioned what you did, but you did not mention whether it
worked or not. If it did not work, then provide details.

The quote in my previous message is from
“https://www.debian.org/releases/stable/amd64/ch04s04.html.en”. Doesn't
this cover your use case?
