By the way, how much flash is in modern x86 motherboards these days ? 2 MB would be great for kboot,
2 MB? dream on :-(
Getting 1 MB is as good as we can do for now.
Speaking of this has anyone played with Ingo's set of patchs that remove forced inlineing?
Lwn.net reports he claims a 5% size reduction in his kernel. (over just the -s compile) The "allyesconfig" got a 25% reduction.
That + tinykernel might get you in the ballpark.
