    Normally the process is you run 'make' from the root of the kernel
    source tree.

    The exact process you use to process a working binary depends on the
    architecture you're running. On my main box here (Dual PIII 1GHz), I
    use something like:

    $ make -j8 bzImage modules

    When cross-compilling a kernel for my SGI Indy, I use:
    $ make -j8 vmlinux modules CROSS_COMPILE=mips-unknown-linux-gnu-

    Similar for my Gateway Microserver (rebadged Cobalt Qube 2):
    $ make -j8 vmlinux modules CROSS_COMPILE=mipsel-unknown-linux-gnu-

    To the others: What's happening with the Kernel HOWTO? That guide
    covered a lot about how to do this...?

    Also, remember that you can use the -C argument to make, to tell it to
    change directories first... e.g. 'make -C /path/to/kernel/source' will
    do what you want without having to manually 'cd' first.
