Compiling the kernel is a simple job involving the following steps:
1. Go the place where ur kernel source is residing.
2. make menuconfig (for configuring the kernel)
3. make dep (for checking for dependencies )
4. make bzImage / make zImage ( this creates the kernel image)
5. make modules_install
6. make install (this will update ur lilo.conf with the kernel image u
got
after complilation)
7. make drivers
8. reboot !!

doing steps 5,6 and 7 are optional, as per the requirements
