Guide to rolling your own kernel:

This is one way of doing it. He explains in an
entertaining and "newbie-friendly" way.
Another (and better?) place to look and read is in
the file README (allways have a look at those before
dealing with sourcecode) in your kernel-source folder.
For more specific subjects, look in your kernels
Documentation directory.
You do not need to work/compile in the /usr/src area,
you can do the compiling as a normal user in your
home directory. Only the install part or manual
copying of the compiled kernel to /boot, and copying
of the compiled modules directory to /lib/modules needs
to be done as root.
Remember from the "Newbie's Top Ten Commands" link
i gave you earlier:
" If you are not root, you can NOT hose your system! You can blow 7
shades of sh** out of your user account and render it dead or at least
very sick indeed. But if you login as a different user, all will be
well. Login as "root" and screw up, and well, it could be a sad day for
you. So keep saying, "Do I need to be root to do this?", if not, dont!!"
That is a very good advice!
And of course the modifying of your bootloader
also needs to be done as root (allways remember
to *run* lilo after making kernelchanges, if that
is your(?) choise of bootloader).
