You may need to trim some stuff from your kernel, such as ISOFS, and
comment out all the ethernet drivers that you are not using.  I run
a kernel with NFS, GATEWAY, 2 ethernet drivers, 4 com ports, DDB,
and BPF and the X stuff.  It just fits into the 640K memory space.
And yes, I have the math emulator in there too.
