You probably wanted to use 'make oldconfig' rather than 'olddefconfig'. To improve your build time a lot, try this: 1) copy that .config over. 2) Insert all your USB and other pluggable devices at least once, so they get their drivers modprobed'd. 3) Use 'make localmodconfig' - this will only make modules for devices you actually have (maybe 200) rather than the 4,000 or so a distro kernel builds. Proceed with your steps 2 and 3.
