Not much I can do about this. Things are about as modular as they can be. Dapper
2.6.15 kernels were based on breezy configs, and new drivers were just made modular.

As for initrd, that's a matter for the initramfs-tools. My G4's initramfs is
7Megs compress (heck, I have some machines that are 11Megs compressed).

Even if some things were made modular, they are most likely things that when
moved from the kernel, will have to be placed in the initrd. So there's a catch-22.
