If you click on the above link you will see a list of 2.4.31 kernels and 
modules with file sizes.  The la kernel is the smallest.  All but the 
kernels with built-in scsi support will fit on a 720K floppy disk.

I suggest a parallel port zip drive for larger files.

A parallel transfer cable or nullmodem cable (use with laplink, other DOS 
file transfer programs, or linux plip but it is fussy about laptop 
parallel ports).

A pcmcia network card once you get linux working.  Or even a modem.
