I have a question about kernel sizes. I recently re-compiled my kernel
(2.2.5-15, on a RH6.0 box) and had trouble getting the make zImage step
to work correctly due to the kernel size being too large. Now, I am not
trying to bloat up my system, but I cannot seem to get a kernel larger
than 500K to work. However, when I go into /boot I see that the default
kernel that Red Hat installs is well over 600K.
my system is RH6.0, PII, 4G HD, 96MB RAM.
Any clues as to what the real size limit of the kernel is in Red Hat?
Or does the distro make a difference here?
