Ok, I will see what I can do. It isn't a dracut system, but
initramfs-tools AFAIS (not that I ever touched or decided anything in
this respect).

I will try to get to that state. (Only that USB devices seem to be hosed
in Debian's initramfs ... no kbd atm :-(

As said, it is just puzzling that 5.10.19 boots without a hinch and
without a warning, just running it now.

Ok, I have already killed it ;-)

Thanks a lot
