It's actually pretty simple. Once you get the kernel source unpacked, go
to the top director (eg kernel-2.4.21).
make clean
make mrproper
make clean
make xconfig
Go through each menu. Plenty of on-screen help is available.
make dep
make bzImage
make modules
make modules install
make install
You're done. Re-boot and try the new kernel. Just take your time with
the menus.
