I have Linux Suse 6.2 with 2.2.10 Kernel (the one on Athlon's boot disk). I am trying to update my kernel so I downloaded kernel 2.2.14 source file. Then I have been setting up the new kernel, trying to make it as small as possible. So I have changed many "yes" to "no" in my configuration kernel, but after compiling I have found out that my supposed-thin kernel is 1,5 mbytes, while my standard old kernel is 700K. What am I doing wrong? Or it is normal?

On my system: chris@galaxy:~ > ls -l /boot/vmlinuz -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 606621 Feb 12 13:47 /boot/vmlinuz but this is with quite a few things compiled as modules. Did you compile everything into the kernel, rather than compiling as modules?
