While trying to install alsa on my box,
the 2.4.20 kernel was a dependency according to
urpm.
I've done manual install of kernels but never
in the "rpm" world. So I looked for docs on
it, found some on mdk user .org : here :
http://www.mandrakeuser.org/docs/mdoc/ref/compiling-kernel.html

is it still the way ?
1/ get the src rpm ,
2/ install,
3/ configure (via menuconfig or others)
4/ pray ,
5/ make dep && make clean bzImage modules modules_install && install
6/ modify lilo or grub to reflect the changes

but : nowhere any mention of initrd

so is this ok ?  :

7/ mkinitrd /boot/????.img kernel-????

thks all
