I thought we have deferred initrd generation to posttrans. I just updated TW and initrd was regenerated 4 times

This is intended, so that there is an initrd right after the kernel has been updated.
- after virtualbox kmp - after udev - after all packages have been installed
These should be deferred to posttrans, because in case of a failed install, there will already be a working initrd with the previous version of the tools. Also, the packages regenerated the initrd for all kernels, which takes long. Please submit bugreports with y2logs.
