first: i`ve successfully ran 2.5.43 on a 386sx20/4M ram notebook.
the one problem was the ppp over serial not working, but i suspect that it just needs to be recompiled with 2.5 headers (am i right?).
the other was, well, the fact that ultra-stripped 2.5.43 still used 200k more memory than 2.4.19, and thats despite it was compiled with -Os instead of -O2. actually it was 2000k free with 2.4 vs 1800k free with 2.5
i know Rik had plans of some ultra bloody embedded/lowmem changes for such cases. i`d like to hear about things in the area :)
