The following method is a slamdunk for 2.4.x kernels and should
work for any 2.2.x kernel as well.  Combine this with BoBB's
article, "How To Configure a Linux Kernel" in Binary Revolution
1.2 (http://magazine.binrev.com), and you should be able to do just
about anything you want with Linux.

********************************************************************
1. su -

2. cd /usr/src

3. wget http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.4/linux-2.4.27.tar.bz2

4. tar -xjf linux-2.4.27.tar.bz2

5. ln -s linux-2.4.27 linux

6. cd linux

7. make mrproper

8. make menuconfig

9. make dep && make clean && make bzImage && make modules && make \
   modules_install

10. cp /boot/vmlinuz /boot/vmlinuz.bak

11. cp arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot/vmlinuz

12. cp /boot/System.map /boot/System.map.bak

13. cp System.map /boot/System.map

14. vi /etc/lilo.conf

	Add the following so you can boot your old kernel:

	image = /boot/vmlinuz.bak
	  root = /dev/hda1
	  label = Linux.old
	  read-only

15. lilo && reboot
