That ramdisk was not generated by yaird. If you intend to use yaird, then make sure yaird is enabled in /etc/kernel-img.conf as described in /usr/share/doc/yaird/README.Debian, and dpkg-reconfigure your kernel packages. If you have no special interest in yaird, then probably you don't even use it any longer, and you should be able so safely remove that package. Yaird was the default ramdisk generator at some point in the past. Now the default is initramfs-tools. The package maintainer of initramfs-tools claim yaird to be fundamentally broken. I disagree, and use yaird for most if not all of my laptops, workstations and servers. If no new information comes up, I will close this bugreport as unpreproducible. You clearly hit a bug somewhere, and most likely it was a bug in some Debian package. I just don't believe it to be in the yaird package, and since the package maintainer of initramfs-tools is actively tracking bugs here in yaird but is not interested in adopting bugs "contaminated" by mentioning yaird, I suspect it is easier to file a new bugreport against initramfs-tools than poking more here. Max: If you reconsider, you are of course free to reassign this bugreport to initramfs-tools.
