Markus, Does any of this make sense ?I think that the initrd only contains the most necessary things, e.g. not dsdt's for 1000 different models, but only for the one PC that needs it.

The initrd is also usually rebuilt for each machine after installation, containing only the required drivers for the current machine and nothing more. Same with the DSDT, it would just be appended to the just-created initrd.
Both valid points ... I think that it's fair to say that if the machine is going to have a DSDT appended, it'll be done at initrd re-generation time ...
