 did you clean the filesystem before doing the compress?

 if not, can i recommend that you either do a tar -cvzf of its
contents or perhaps make a fresh 4gb empty partition and then cpio the
files from one to the other, to minimise the amount of the disk image
that will have garbage on it?

 then upload the result to the incoming directory on ftp.lkcl.net.
i'll work out where to host it from there.
