OK, so I have made some various tests, and in particular, as suggested by
Okuji, suppressed the long help messages. I have put out all the debug
functions, the "sugar" (find, setkey, color --- if one wants colors, he can
use A_NORMAL and A_REVERSE to define them at compile time), but reintroduced
`embed', `install' and `setup'.
The result is a 66372 Ko stage2, and I find this size reasonable for an
installation floppy, if combined with the use of an extended format (I have
not tested at the moment the patches from Jochen).
Cheers,
