Well, I would start from an existing kernel configuration, instead than from scratch. You might want to start with a: $ make oldconfig and after that give a: $ make menuconfig and configure whatever option you need. I am sure there might be better, fancier, more modern ways of doing the same thing nowadays, and there are also X-, QT-, and GTK-based configuration tools, but for a reason or another I got stuck with what I learned a few years ago, and it has always worked fine for me.
