How about if it snarfs through the messages from a boot with a generic
kernel and then offers this as the default build set?  Have the other
devices available as "advanced" options.  That should cut the number
of questions quite a bit.  In fact, if a reasonable set of options can
be divined then it could very well just be a matter of running the
script/program and building/installing the new kernel.  Perchance even
the build and install could be wrapped up in the script as an option
(i.e. shall I build & install this new kernel for you?) with suitable
warnings that the machine will be rebooted
