which shows two things:
1- a8f5034540195307362d071a8b387226b410469f should have a x86-64 version
2- the limit looks entirely artificial

So, is removing the limit prone to bite me?

  OG.

The build system merely tries to warn you it's not going to fit on a floppy disk. "bzImage" means "Big zImage", not "bz2-compressed Image", so unless you're building a floppy disk, don't use zImage.


He's talking about the bzImage limit, not the zImage limit. The bzImage limit in x86-64 is real (in the sense it exists) but incorrect (in the sense that it has the wrong value); see my other post.
