The short answer is look here: http://newbiedoc.sourceforge.net/system/kernel-pkg.html The idea of make-kpkg was to automate that long sequence of steps; after you configure the kernel and make the kernel image all you need to do is install the kernel image .deb. By default make-kpkg runs distclean (cleaner than mrproper) after building the kernel .deb (it moves the .config file out of the way first, and restores it afterward).
