Yes, unfortunately.

IMHO no way to make it fit on the 1.44M disk.

IMHO yes. Since the 2.2.x kernel have <= ~1040kB, we should have on
2.88M at least 330kB, so about the half of supported languages should
fit on the disk. Unfortunately, I did not have success on building
LC-able BFs with limited number of languages. Doing so, dbootstrap
crashed after complaining "could not load messages.trm".
So, what is your opinion on this topic? Limit the number of languages?
Or look for better boot options for the CD (patched Grub) which would
make it possible to use non-default boot image format, so we get more
space?
Gruss/Regards,
