It has nothing to do with my distro... try getting a kernel from
kernel.org instead of apt-get and learn how things work in the *real*
world!  ;-)

Again debian specific... and not something I would be comfortable with.

 |Steps for compiling Kernel ( There is a LOST in this sub. Pls refer that)
 |
 |# make dep
 |# make bzImage
 |# make modules
 |# make modules_install
 |# make install

That would rank as the worst LOST because it'll fail on every single linux
kernel that was ever released!
