## Problem - PPC quite often has problems with too large initrd - See #2026 ## Solution - Use the same solution from installation-images (openSUSE/installation-images#754) ## Testing - Tested manually on x86_64 - The initrd size decreased just about 1 MB (tiny difference), but the overall ISO size decreased about 98MB (that's quite a lot) - Let's see how the numbers will look on PPC

Task
It might be useful to have some modules not included depending on the architecture.
This can be helpful on ppc64 for example, to reduce the initrd size drastically.
