I wrote some lines on how to do that on a Debian system:
<http://www.geocities.com/wolfgangpfeiffer/kernel.html>
You'll find there only the actual commands you'll need to build a kernel
the debian way, plus some hints on docs that are useful for
understanding what actually is done with these commands. Or that's at
least what I'm hoping for.
Should work, as I hope, on a x86 machine, too: I learned this stuff on
ppc.
And yes: Comments on how useful this page is are extremely welcome ....
:)

Good luck
