No, not really. Technically you can rip a kernel any associated kernel modules from any working system image. But it may not always be so simple. I think Robert used to keep modules tar'd up for various kernels, but I do not know where to look for them any more. Also, since kernel modules have to be compiled against the kernel they're meant for . . . it makes things a bit more difficult. Anyway, it's probably better to start off with a console image from Robert, and just start apt-get remove --purge unneeded packages. A good way to know what to remove is to pipe the output of dpkg to a file ( dpkg -l > /path/to/file.ext ) , and start googling the package names. After a while you will know what packages are required. You can also search the web for "reduce debian" and you'll run into links like this: https://wiki.debian.org/ReduceDebian. So just start reading. Theres also a really good read on reducing Ubuntu, which mostly applies to Debian as well ( since Ubuntu is based on Debian ). If you're going to use Roberts barefs though. You'd be best off following that whole guide I linked to, and compiling your own kernel, kernel modules, and boot loaders.
