No idea about the filter (sorry), but the kernel is easy. Grab kernel-source and kernel-package packages, cd /usr/src/linux, 'make menuconfig', make your choices (best to make everything you can but root filesystem driver (ext2fs) and storage subsystem driver (scsi or ide) in to modules. Then run 'make-kpkg --revision whatever2.0.xx kernel_image' wait while and then do 'dpkg -i <name of the package in /usr/src/>.deb'. Reboot and you're done. For more detail, RTNM. (nice manual)
