How do I compile it?  I have been trying for almost a month now, I =
didn't
want to ask, but I can not figure it out.
I know I have to re-build my kernel, but I really don't know how and all =
the
documentation I have read points to files that do not exist once the =
machine
has been built from the recovery CD.

Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

I got it to compile, and boot.  It gets rid of the annoying "Starting =
up"
message, but doesn't seem to do anything else.
