Hello,

I don't know if this belongs here, but I just wanted to came across a
strange thing I am experiencing. I am currently working on v3.6, and I
have just discovered that generated kernel images have a totally
unrelated size.

When I compile with something like make-kpkg --initrd kernel_image
kernel_headers, the generated image is 7.7MB, and when I then run make
deb-pkg, the generated deb package is 33MB.

Other sizes are:
6.5M <-> 24M
38M <-> 484M (!!!)

Can anyone explain me this? I can't understand the difference, appart
from the obvious (that are different tools).

Thank you for your attention,

Javier Domingo
