maybe a pointer to the documentation?
Is there such a thing? I mean a comprehensive guide for doing such work
on (not only) gentoo systems?

The problem I ran into when I copied the old way, cp
arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot, that wasn't the kernel but was a link to

The idea from above is to end up with:
localversion1
localversion2 - .version
.version
Where:
localversion1 contains HOSTNAME
.version contains number `N' (current build)
localversion2 is symlinked to .version

Nobody here using the genkernel package to build his kernel? I'm using
it all the time, makes initramfs creation so much easier :-)

Not me ;)
But seeing this discussion, I've finally realised that I'm a dumbass.
For ages now I've been manually copying the kernel, the system.map and
the config around my filesystem. I've always wondered how on earth

I can set the version, either in the kernel config with
CONFIG_LOCALVERSION
or by using a file
localversion
containing a version string?
I am using the first way, don't know the second.
It works just the same, but

Does this then create a bzImage-versionstring file, and make install
copies this to /boot/kernel-versionstring (and system.map and .config
respectably)?
Yes.
Also how exactly do you then need to build the kernel.
Does a simple 'make'

I'm a little confused here... what exactly is in .version? Say if I
wanted to identify the kernel as belonging to a specific machine.
HOST is vm23. Now if I wanted to have an incrementing version string
that included that host name

That question has already been answered in this thread.
