when selecting "Guided - use entire disk and set up encrypted LVM" with

Guided partition sizes are not defined in partman-crypto but partman-auto.

With file sizes of 250MB for initrd.img-6.9.9-amd64 this is too small,
and even with initrd.img-6.9.8-amd64 at 80MB this can hardly keep more
than 3 kernel versions at once.

Such sizes are excessive and caused by a bug in initramfs-tools 0.142 which duplicates firmware files, fixed in 0.143 (experimental). See other related bug reports:
<https://bugs.debian.org/1076582>
<https://bugs.debian.org/1076539>
<https://bugs.debian.org/1076695>

Please consider raising the default size for this partition.

Work in progress, see <https://salsa.debian.org/installer-team/partman-auto/-/merge_requests/13>.
