We just shipped some major refactoring in our initramfs, removing some of the oldest tech-debt in the distro and finally making it possible to boot without first finding and unpacking the "initramfs-extra" archive!

This new unified-initramfs behaviour is now the default for most devices, and may lead to a slight boottime speedup!

We're hopeful this doesn't break anything, but if you do run into issues please go check out the tracking thread here https://postmarketos.org/edge/2024/10/31/Recent-changes-might-affect-booting/
