And that's a full desktop QEMU "server" - and i don't use initrd, because i don't need every driver in the tree, just the ones that work for my system. No AI needed. You boot a "kitchen sink" kernel, lspci -k, note down what it says, then just enable those things in the kernel and build it.
Even ubuntu being "quite supportive" is 30-45MB.
The kernel source tree is over a gigabyte, but that has to support everything it supports - arm, risc-v, x86_64, etc.
