+ The linux kernel is a kind of self-extracting executable.
+ Several compression algorithms are available, which differ
+ in efficiency, compression and decompression speed.
+ Compression speed is only relevant when building a kernel.
+ Decompression speed is relevant at each boot.
+
+ If you have any problems with bzip2 or lzma compressed
+ kernels, mail me (Alain Knaff) <alain@knaff.lu>. (An older
+ version of this functionality (bzip2 only), for 2.4, was
+ supplied by Christian Ludwig)
+
+ High compression options are mostly useful for users, who
+ are low on disk space (embedded systems), but for whom ram
+ size matters less.

+ If in doubt, select 'gzip'
