On one hand you can 'strip' the debug information away, on the other hand it is also possible to 'gzip' the files, since grub will uncompress them transparently.
I got fiasco from CVS, and followed the steps showed in http://os.inf.tu-dresden.de/fiasco/use.html I want to create a hard disk image, and then there will be enough space. Unfortunately, I don't know how to create a hard disk image. So does anyone have some ideas?
There is a harddisk image available in the OpenTC snapshot:
http://tudos.org/opentc/download.xml
Look into the instructions to find out how to change the disk image.
