CD/DVD drive isn't bad too. anyway - you don't change kernel every day. or pendrive. possibly floppy but i don't know if kernel (with at least disk driver and ufs) can fit on it compressed. i don't think so. ZIPdrives internal (i've got a bit for free). netboot or simply small hard disk. there are lot of options.
