Any of the kernel config options will yield the same result (providing you pick the same parameters)
the steps to compile:
make [menu|x|old]config
make dep clean bzImage modules modules_install install
When it asks if you want to install Lilo say yes.
reboot.
The only tricky part is the configure step. Kernel newbies usuallly leave out something vital, like PCI support.
If your new kernel doesn't boot start over again with the configure step and try to figure out what you did wrong. If you really hose things bad you can run "make mrproper" to clean your kernel tree back to the way you extracted it.
