Well, it's quite hard nowadays since the base 2.6 kernel has grown quite a lot in features that are not modular. I managed to slim my sparc32 kernel down last year but it was quite a pain. Initrd/initramfs becomes almost a must and I seem to remember that I had to also disable some new 2.6 features to make it fit. Granted, there are more burning problems with the sparc32 port than enhancing the boot protocol but it is a real problem IMHO. -- Meelis Roos - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe sparclinux" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
