/usr/src/linux/README has step-by-step instructions. When you get to
the "make config" stage I suggest using the text "make config" rather
than a menu/GUI option - less chance to miss something IMHO. The
config process literally takes you step by step, and do type "?" at
every question and read the explanations - very educational. Don't
worry - nearly every explanation ends with "if you don't have a clue
about all this, just answer yes [or no as the case may be - OG]"
