off my doc . I dont know whether 8M space of Doc is enough . How can I make such a small system ,and can boot form doc?

Marius is correct - both LILO and patched GRUB can make the DOC Millennium bootable. 8MB is more than enough space for a small system.

I used a package called "Peewee Linux" (GPL-license) to set up my DOC Mil. It currently uses 2.2 kernels, but it is possible to use a custom kernel -- in my case, a 2.4.18 with the MTD drivers.
