This topic seems to be a perennial question. So I don't ruffle any feathers like in http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-devel/2006-February/001400.html could someone point once and for all to an authoritative guide on a complete/proper/correct procedure on building and installing a custom kernel using the rpmbuild method rather than the traditional method.

The way I would do it: 1) Get the src.rpm 2) Install it 3) Replace the kernel source tarball 4) Change the version on the specfile 5) Try to build 6) Rinse and repeat (#5 & #6), until it builds the way I want, removing already applied patches and changing the ones needed accordingly.
