Tell me about it. 

The GENERIC 1.4Z i386 kernel leaves 2.5 megs of memory for user programs
out of the 8 that I have. A compile of a new kernel took just over a month.
My new kernel left over 5 megs of memory, and a kernel compile in that much
memory took less than 2 days.

Is there any chance of a i386 GENERIC_SMALL kernel perhaps?
