I've just checked the kernel's size, and nothing is 50MB.

After fiddling, now it says. (for x86 kernel) 3.5MB

    [Linux-bzImage, setup=0x3000, size=0x367f70]
Video mode: 1280x1024...@0
Video frame buffer: f0000000

The x86_64 kernel has:

    [Linux-bzImage, setup=0x2c00, size=0x2ff470]
Video mode: 1280x1024...@0
Video frame buffer: f0000000
