Going back to the old argument, it seems that you really need to compile the kernel. You can read the discussion from this link:

The extra login manager (XDM/KDM/GDM) and X server processes will
require negligible resources, at least compared to the desktop
environment + office suite + email/browser suite. So the answer to
"wouldn't that bump up the resource requirements" depends on exactly
what you had planned the multi-user single-CPU setup to do, anyway. If
all you wanted to offer to your users was plain-jane console access,
then go with your custom kernel and no X. But if you're giving them GUI
to begin with, you don't need the custom kernel. That was my point.
