If you could provide a roadmap on how to do this, or even better have a chance to do it yourself for 2.4.27+ (2.4.32 would be great), that would _really_ be useful.
2.4 is a smaller kernel than 2.6, and for supporting legacy systems that only boot from floppies, I regularly use it on a single boot floppy, using uclibc and busybox, along with e2fs tools and also dialog, for lots of support software we develop. I guess we have a thing about getting it all on one floppy, but it would be helpful if we could jump into a 2.6 kernel on CD, for some situations. Legacy systems won't boot from CD in most cases.
