In /usr/src
tar zxvf linux-2.2.2.tar.gz
but pay attention to the directory /usr/src/linux: it should be a LINK to
your
source tree. So, the steps I follow o build a new kernel are:
1) put the .tar.gz in /usr/src
2) rm linux (delete the symbolic link)
3) tar zxvf linux-2.2.2.tar.gz
4) mv linux linux-2.2.2 (rename the new kernwl directory)
5) ln -sf linux-2.2.2 linux (re-create the symbolic link to the
new kernel directory)
6) modify /etc/lilo.conf adding an entry for the new kernel
7) usual steps to compile the new kernel
