A good way to do this is to use the kernel-source and kernel-package
packages. After installing both packages, do the following (as root):
1) Type: cd /usr/src/linux
2) Type: make config [make menuconfig also works, as does make xconfig
in X]
3) Configure your kernel by answering the questions.
4) Type: make-kpkg --revision <version> kernel-image
where <version> is the version number that you want to assign to the
new package that you are building. One good scheme is to use your
host name followed by a revision number as in "hostname.1".
5) Install (using dpkg -i) the package in the file
/usr/src/kernel-image-<kernel version>_<version>_<arch>.deb
where <kernel version> is the version number of the kernel, such as
2.0.32 or 2.0.33; <version> is the version number from step 4; and
<arch> is the architecture type of the machine you are using,
probably i386.
6) You should save the /usr/src/linux/.config file. It contains the
configuration of your newly created kernel, which you later can use to
build new kernels. Simply place this file in /usr/src/linux/.config
before using make-kpkg.
7) You can now remove the kernel-source package.
a) Type: cd /usr/src/linux
b) Type: make-kpkg clean
c) Type: cd ..
d) Type: dpkg --purge kernel-source-<kernel version>
