Let's see. How about piling up all the CDs which ship with mobos,
graphics cards, mice (wtf for?), in fact any card, measure their height
in metres, and copy their content to hard disk. (Does it fit?) Then we
multiply by a factor of 3 to 5 to get the equivalent for the source
code. Surely 2.1GB compares very favourably!

If you have such an underspeced box that you can't compile a kernel on
it, either compile it on another box, or install $distrokernel. Or get a
$25 1394 card with a different chipset.

No sorry, can't help with nvidia 2.
