The handbook claims that the build procedure strips the kernel before
installing.
Can you manually strip the kernel? Most optimized kernels I've seen are
less
than 2 meg, the generic kernel is slightly over three. A debug kernel is
usually
larger than 7 meg, so it seems like your kernel is already stripped, as
well
as the kernel.debug.
Verify your config file and try rebuilding the kernel.
