I wonder should it not be in FAQ somewhere

cd /usr/src/linux
make mrproper
edit Makefile - change EXTRAVERSION to something like 11mdk1alan
cp /boot/config  .config
make oldconfig
make dep
make
make modules
make modules_install
make install

Leaves you with copy of currently booted kernel installed _and_ mkinitrd
created _and_ /etc/lilo.conf updated _and_ not interfering with other
kernels. Now you can hack it sround as much as you want.
