--hostonly initramfs on F23, 30M
--reproducible initramfs on F24, 50M
--no hostonly initramfs on F24, 50M

So this might mean boot partitions need to get bigger, which is
actually currently being discussed on anaconda-devel@

I'm finding that by default right now F23 initramfs is 30M, F24
initramfs is 50M, so something's changed for Fedora 24.
