I usually just do a make oldconfig after patching the new kernel using my saved .config file, then make dep, make bzImage, move the kernel image to it's appropriate place, make sure there is a kernel.old entry in lilo.conf, lilo-v and reboot. All those steps I can do in my sleep. For millions of years, mankind lived just like the animals.. Then something happened, which unleashed the power of our imagination... We learned to talk...
