No boot after Initrd update (1 reply)

When installing certain packages in Debian (like ntfs-3g), the package manager will make automatic modifications to the initrd under /boot. I've done this a couple times now and had to reinstall the system each time. So I assume the issue is that something in the modification of initrd is causing the system to fail to boot. If I am correct, I have 2 questions.

Aside from marking the initrd as read-only, is there a solution for this?

Instead of having to reinstall the system from scratch, is there a way to install deb packages on the arm based usb drive from an x86_64 machine?
