In brief: install kernel-package and read its documentation.
Either download the latest kernel-source_2.0.32 package from Debian or
download the latest kernel from sunsite or ftp.kernel.org. (If you
get linux-2.0.33.tar.gz or similar, unpack it in /usr/local/src.)
cd to /usr/src/linux or /usr/local/src/linux, run "make xconfig",
then use kernel-package to make yourself a nice kernel .deb.
