Good!

Yes, please do. Then we know if we can close this issue or not. Note that you
can choose how to update and backup by editing: /etc/initramfs-tools/update-
initramfs.conf. You also have a lot of options for updating, see the manpage for
update-initramfs.

If possible, do also try to find out if your new (beowulf) kernel initrd(.img-
4.19.0-6-amd64, or whatever) has firmware-*-nonfree or not. (Don't know how
yet).


Thanks!
