Hi,

I am surprised why I am getting a 400 MB kernel deb package after a kernel
build. I use debian to compile kernel. When I am deactivating kernel
debuging an issue happens during my compile.

How I can compile a kernel with a small size?



I use following list to compile:

wget http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-2.6.32.tar.bz2

tar xfv linux-2.6.32.tar.bz2

cd linux-2.6.32

wget
http://download.openvz.org/kernel/branches/rhel6-2.6.32/042stab024.1/patches/patch-042stab024.1-combined.gz

gzip -dc  patch-042stab024.1-combined.gz | patch -p1

wget
http://download.openvz.org/kernel/branches/rhel6-2.6.32/042stab024.1/configs/config-2.6.32-042stab024.1.x86_64

cp config-2.6.32-042stab024.1.x86_64 .config

make clean && make-kpkg clean
make-kpkg --initrd --append-to-version="-openvz" --revision=2 kernel_image
kernel_headers

-rw-r--r--  1 root src  443459300 09. aug 08:59
linux-image-2.6.32-openvz_1_amd64.deb

Thanks very much guys
