There are chunks that are the same, but the kernel modules are different. If all of the kernel modules move into the initrd (probably going to happen, although this does increase the memory requirements in general), then these can merge. >And how about >stage2.img, if that's a superset? This certainly wouldn't get us the >300MB we need, but it could get us 5-15% of that. It's a superset, but it's not really merge-able with the other images without major filesystem work. Jeremy
