Using stock kernel in most cases yes. Using custom kernel, you can compile
the modules in and won't need initrd.
Richard Owlett accomplished it without anything special as regards an
initrd. His installation to the SD device was from a straight up-and-up
installer. It is very, very doubtful that the initrd on his HD had been
customised. Details at

So, the question remains. Is creating an initrd on Debian really necessary?
