How to compile a custom kernel for Ubuntu Intrepid

[ Thanks to An Anonymous Reader for this link. ]

"I run Ubuntu Intrepid 8.10 on Dual Core 2 laptop with 4 GB of memory. The default kernel supplied by Ubuntu doesn’t support the 4GB memory, I could choose to run the server kernel but I also want to take advantage of the Core2 support in the kernel so I took it upon myself to compile a custom kernel."
