Let's see, the compression is just a simple gzip of the kernel modules on the media, which should be compressed anyway in the .lrp format. Once the (kernel) modules are loaded in kernel space there is IMHO no need to keep them in /lib/modules anyway, unless they need to be reloaded. The cheapest way to save space is to simply not use /lib/modules/kernel...... on the ram disk. cheers Erich
