No I haven't rebuild a kernel *yet* but if it all boils downs to changing 
some scripts and then recompiling the kernel then I guess I am about to 
rebuild a kernel :)

Let me read up on the HOWTOs and the docs and hopefully will be able to do 
it...  I guess I will put linux on a spare box and then try on that first, 
so it won't affect everyday operation if I 'gooded' up the kernel :)
