So here's some results.
f2e707287dd82cccb05a3fef6b75cb356744ca58 (Jun 14), no update: 1019215872
f2e707287dd82cccb05a3fef6b75cb356744ca58 (Jun 14), update: 1017118720
1a0c28fdf638796bda60ed2785f95eac16a85b65 (Jun 22), update: 1005584384
that is, with the old spin-kickstarts and without the above update,
we're 19215872 bytes oversize; with the update but old spin-kickstarts,
we're 17118720 bytes oversize (the update saves ~2.1MB); and with the
update and latest spin-kickstarts, we're 5584384 bytes oversize (the
kickstart changes save ~11.5MB). We still need to find another 5.6MB
from somewhere.
Do we have to be byte strict here? For physical medium sizes, we had to
be, this 1 GB is more "we set it as we think it's a good idea". Or maybe
1 GB sticks (what's the real size one can use + overlay?) but it's not
as strict, as you could pick up bigger one.
R.
Thanks folks!
