Summary: si_mkautoinstallcd does not work with custom kernel file

Initial Comment:
There are problems creating a boot cd with custom
kernel and initrd files. Below is the output of the
si_mkautoinstallcd, and the files used are attached.

The version used is 3.4.0-2 for Debian, installed with
apt-get.

 # si_mkautoinstallcd --kernel
/var/lib/systemimager/images/gclient/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.8-2-686
--initrd
/var/lib/systemimager/images/gclient/boot/initrd.img-2.6.8-2-686

This is not a bug. 
 
Your custom kernel and initrd are too big to fit.  The total size of both 
must be less than 2880 blocks, and your kernel alone is 2680 blocks. 
 
You need to restructure your kernel and initrd to insure that together 
they total less than 1.44MB (2880 blocks).
