IMHO it'll be possible to make 2xfloppy version (1.68 or 1.76M) - one 
floppy for kernel+initrd (compressed to lzma - now it's still in gzip), 
other - for config + packages, especially after splitting busybox to 
small executables + shared library... But somebody really need this?
But I think that it'll be good to make initrd for PXE booting in future, 
with package loading via tftp or nfs...

You mean 486/Pentium, or something  newer?
