Before I explain my questions Ill let you know that I am following this guide ( http://www.finnix.org/Remastering ) perfectly. I have done it before and all went well. This time though, I am adding a newer kernel. I am doing all this in a chrooted environment and have applied all the requirements of Finnix to the kernel including squashfs support, so I am not sure exactly what to do next:

I downloaded the 2.6.18-rc4 kernel from kernel.org, did make menuconfig and added all the support as required in Finnixize Kernel guide, and then added squashfs support. I have already installed the apps I want, now I am not sure what to do. I have only done make menuconfig for the kernel, not make or anything becuase I am not sure what to do next. I was looking for what steps I need to take next so that my remastered cd uses the custom kernel. I have done a remaster before and I just added the apps I wanted then ran the scripts, but I had reasons for wanting the latest kernel, so I want to make sure things go smoothly. thanks
