Is there any way to get a boot floppy to use a compressed kernel? I've looked at gzexe, and it doesn't seem to be able to do it, unless I (possibly) load gzip, etc. Any suggestions? (I'm trying to get the smallest kernel image possible, so I can have a boot disk that supports the floppies, a 3C5X9, and a home grown application. I'll probably have to fit ifconfig, route, and maybe a few other small commands. Any help is welcome. -Brian
