[Xen-users] Why is the size of vmlinuz-2.6-xen0 and vmlinuz-2.6-xen diff

Hi,

I downloaded xen-3.0.2-2 source and did the following commands to build and
install Xen.
make world KERNELS="linux-2.6-xen0 linux-2.6-xenU"
make install

After the above commands are done, I got a vmlinuz-2.6.16-xen in /boot
directory and the size of this file is 1547132, I get another two Xen-Linux
kernel files in /tmp/xen-3.0.2-2/dist/install/boot directory. The size of
vmlinuz-2.6.16-xen0 is 2277107 and the vmlinuz-2.6.16-xenU is 1235921. I
understand vmlinuz-2.6.16-xenU should be smaller as no device drivers are
included, but I don't understand why the size of vmlinuz-2.6.16-xen0 and
vmlinuz-2.6.16-xen is different. They should be same, right?

Could you someone explain what the difference between the file
vmlinuz-2.6.16-xen0 and vmlinuz-2.6.16-xen is?

Thanks,

Liang
