Recently Koen Kooi suggested installing of all kernel-modules on C3x00 
machines. I checked - it takes extra 5 megabytes of storage but we will 
not get posts like 'my usb Ethernet does not work out-of-box'. And what is 
5M when 4G is available ;)

Similar could be done for akita - but here we have ~53M for rootfs so extra 
megabytes matter more - jffs2 image is 2.5M larger (zlib compression do 
some extra tricks).

Extra stuff could be some more drivers:

- wlan-ng for Prism USB wifi sticks
- zd1211  for Zydas USB wifi sticks

I would release this as newer task-bootstrap and rebuilt images.
