[Bug 1970402] Re: Initrd out of memory error after upgrade to 22.04

[p]

If using nvidia drivers, it is impossible to get past this problem by making any kind of changes to initramfs.conf. I tried:
MODULES=dep
COMPRESS=lz4
RUNSIZE=16G

I still get the out of memory. The only way around this is to use
nouveau driver.

But then I can't use my nvidia card for machine learning purposes.
