Re: System is too big. Try using bzImage or modules.

Your zImage *is* too big. Continue to use bzImage instead of zImage as
the error message suggests. Software grows in size. Boot code is
contrained to a given size. If X exceeeds Y, then use a better
compression for X.

It seems like an artificial constraint, but I haven't had time to look
into it. Maybe there's a good reason for it. Maybe fixing it is just
a project for a rainy afternoon or something. Thanks!
