Recently checked the user's manual on RH7.0 - doesn't mention custom-
compiling the kernel. I believe it's the traditional style (make dep,
make {menu,x}config, make dep, make bz{Image,disk}, make modules,
make modules_install. Anyway, it works very well without the need to
make an rpm of the kernel. Haven't made an rpm as I'm much more
comfortable with debian.
On debian, it's much convenient (based on experience) to make a .deb
package of the kernel. Debian has its own default way of placing
kernel modules thus I make it a point to keep it that way as it's
much easier also to maintain.
