My kernel and System.map looks very normal. I had the same file sizes you reported, but only when compiling with all debug symbols. Once stripped the kernel became at the normal size, about 8Mb. When I got the large kernel, I stripped it before copying it in /boot. Arcboot never used the large file. Bye, Giuseppe
