Hi,
The enclosed patch allows to remove the DMI scanning code when
CONFIG_EMBEDDED is defined. It's basically the dma_blacklist patch of
Linux-Tiny ported to 2.6.25-rc1, with the required modifications. It
allows to remove ~10k from the kernel code/data size.
On top of this patch, I've tested if

Or, we could just do the ugliest patch ever, namely

With .22 it boots fine, and by booting fine i mean after we reverted to
