Why not compile the network support into the kernel, remove the modules,
and use the kernel's embedded DHCP/BOOTP support?  I can't remember if
this was in 2.2 or not, but it's an interesting idea.  Only problem is,
to reclaim the space, a new kernel with the proper network support is
needed instead of adding a module.  Adding a module could be done, but
that won't reclaim the extra space taken up by the kernel.
