[Plug] Kernel recompile...


How big in a average sized kernel??
I am running RH6.0, and trying to do a kernel recompile, to solve another
problem (but that's another email :) ) and I have almost everything either
excluded, or moduled (under menuconfig), and still make zImage tells me it is
too big, to use bzImage.  Finally, I get it down to 479K, after excluding some
things that were suggested to be included, zImage worked, but trying to run make
zlilo to install, zlilo says it's too big again...
so how large should a kernel be?  I have an absolutely minimal config..
for reference...
96 megs
NCR SCSI W/F
Matrox Millenium
3com Vortex (905? I can;t remember right now)
SB AWE 64
USR 56k
No dos, no dual boot
mount points are (nod to the conversation, I just decided to use them all...  :>
)
/    1G   /sda3
/boot     300M /sda1
/usr 1G   /sda4
/swap     200M /sda2
/var 1G   /sdb2
/home     2G   /sdb1
/tmp 1G   /sdb3
/storage2G     /sdb4


I don't think all of this information is needed, but...JIC
Peace,
Vale
