all i can say isthat, back when i used to do this, i remember it was not
straightforward. and things have changed a lot since then, so i won't
comment further, but maybe some of the kernel team members can help
uout, especially now that hardy has been released.

I have some notes for rebuilding a live image with a patched kernel. I
got the external modules
to compile once with something very like what is in the notes, but I was
not able to do it a
second time. I think there may be some soft/hard link loop somewhere.
If you try these
steps, let me know how it works out.

Please ignore the stuff related to LANforge..that is my project that I
am adding to the custom
live cd.
