[syslinux] Maximum kernel size

Hi,

I'm using Syslinux 3.11 on a 1Gb USB Stick.
The stick has 1 partition in FAT16.

I'm experimenting with initramfs stuff, and just built a small tree
(round 2.2M).
I just inserted the kernel modules into that tree, and it became
pretty large, with a resulting bzImage of 16.2Mb!!!

When I try to start that kernel, I get an error:
Invalid or corrupt kernel image.

Any idea's on this?
