I do not understand your problem very well, are you looking for a
precompiled kernel or for some information on whether BootX can use
compressed kernel images or not?
1- a kernel
Yes, 2.4.18 on oldworld G3. Do you want the .config file? You can also look
for binary/sources at your local mirror of <ftp.debian.org> or
<www.ppckernel.org>.
2- BootX
Mmmm, I'm not sure you can use a compressed kernel with BootX, I wouldn't
bet on that (I've never tried, I've always done "make vmlinux").
But you should gzip the image before copying it to a MacOS partition, and
then unzip it on the Mac side (of the moon :o)); this could prevent some
writing errors on hfs partitions.
