[Bug 87158] Re: vesafb automatically loaded while blacklisted

Not sure we should really call this a bug. This behaviour results from
initramfs-tools.conf containing the line 'MODULES=most' which includes
all sorts of unnecessary things by default, maybe good for a livecd but
perhaps not for an installation. A better behaviour would be
'MODULES=dep' which only loads modules based on dependencies, results in
a much smaller initramfs, and still leaves the user with a fully
working/bootable system without forcing in unwanted modules.
