Installing new kernel from sources code

To install new kernel from source code follow these steps:

  1. Download latest kernel source
  2. Use 'make xconfig' to create .config file in current folder. You can also use 'make menuconfig' or 'make gconfig' etc. Use 'make help' to get complete list
  3. Use 'make all' to make everything
  4. Use 'sudo make modules_install install' to install the modules as well as the kernel. This also adds a line to /etc/grub.conf as desired
