+</I>&gt;<i> Ken
+</I>Hi,
+
+It could be really interesting to have some installation options.
+I don't remember the kernel's size on my minimal installation but it is
+quite big. I don't know if it is possible to reduce its size but it can
+be complicated even for Mageia's packagers (for ex, wifi module could be
+optional or added in the kernel after the installation).
+
+Regards.
+
+Xuo.
