Save a copy of /usr/src/linux/.config
when your new install is complete with kernel source code in place do;
cd /usr/src/linux
make mrproper
cp backed up file from wherever .
make oldconfig
Quite possably you will be asked a few questions, this being that in a
higher kernel source tree new kernel options might have been added, you
will be prompted to answer y | n | m
make dep bzImage
I presume you know the rest, if not read /usr/src/linux/README,
and dont forget to edit /etc/lilo.conf and rerun lilo.
