Ohh yes. RedHat/Fedora should have a minimal kernel (like other linux distributions) for the installation progress and otherwise. :)
I believe you misunderstand the issues. It's not the kernel that prevents installing on a 32MB machine.
To explain more: its mostly anaconda. With miniconda hacks you can get down to about 64Mb (actually CD fedora will install fine on a 64Mb box anyway). Below that needs lots of rpm transactions not one if I understood jbj right (but dont quote me on it ;))
With yum I don't care too much. Other than for testing it seems yum is good enough I've done the last install
