I can help to some extent to make a config file for the kernel
with a minimum built in, the rest as modules. But please note two
things:
- In my machine, performance won't degrade with things like
journalling file systems, strange memory management, etc... And
currently I don't have physical access to an old machine, so I'm not
able to know if some specific option in the kernel will make a
machine slow to a crawl :(((
- I'm clueless with RH specs file, so I cannot make one. In fact,
modifying one scares me. RH scares me. I'm a Debian-like boy, sorry.
I don't maintain deb packages, neither. Have I told that they scare
me too?
