My kernel vmlinux seems to compile at a weighty 2.6Mb - is this image too large to boot on the N2200?

It would seem that your tar.gz file is corrupt
I just downloaded it and testet it. On my Debian Woody it works without errors. Maybe something got wrong when you downloaded it. You can test if the file is corrupt , make md5sum linux-2200-0.2.1.tar.gz the result must be 9de034bef83e3f3dd5b22755ae5a7565
I just googled around and find anoteher possible reason for the error. In one Forum the say:

It could well be a gnutar version problem.
Did you try it with another tar-version (like the one in DSL) ?caulktel, i compressed it with tar --version tar (GNU tar) 1.13.25 gzip --version gzip 1.3.2 (2001-11-03)
which comes with Woody8363,
I also tried to download and decompress your archive.
Using Nautulis package manager and also by tar zxvf - it bombed out stating that the archive (in various places) had an implausibily old time-stamp dated in 1943! Yowzaz!
Any chance you could repackage and repost?
Cheers,
TT.The problem must be with the newer versions of Tar that we are using, so I will try again only from DSL.TubbyTommy ,caulktel i just downloded the current DSL (1.0), burn it on CD and boot it. Then i download the linux-2200-0.2.1.tar.gz file with DSL (1.0 comes with Firefox , great) and make tar -xzf. It works without errors.Next Page...
