The handbook claims that the build procedure strips the kernel before installing. Can you manually strip the kernel? Most optimized kernels I've seen are less than 2 meg, the generic kernel is slightly over three. A debug kernel is usually larger than 7 meg, so it seems like your kernel is already stripped, as well as the kernel.debug. Verify your config file and try rebuilding the kernel. -- If a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush, then what can I get for two hands in the bush?
