Well, 100K is *huge* if you've already removed any unneeded packages
and modules. Your going to have a very hard time making that much
space possible.

Removing the e3 will make editing a file impossible from your image....
I don't imagine that is what you are after. The only routing/firewall
file that would still allow connectivity to a network would be
/etc/ipfilter.conf.... you will also need to eliminate the references to
this file in /etc/init.d/network, /etc/dhclient-*-hooks, etc.....
Doing this really won't really put a dent in the amount of space you
are looking to find. 

IMHO, you would be more likely to save the needed space by compiling
a custom kernel with the fs-support and your particular NIC module(s)
and bypassing module support altogether. But that is just my two cents
worth.

If linux isn't the answer, you've probably got the wrong question!
