Since I should document this somewhere, here's the procedure
for building the Slackware kernel package. I do not patch the official
kernel sources, but it's not exactly a virgin either.

1. Untar Linus' source in /usr/src.
2. mv linux linux-2.x.x (version number)
3. cp -a linux-2.x.x linux-2.x.x.orig
4. ln -sf linux-2.x.x linux
5. cd linux
Insert Slackware's bare.i config:
6. cp kernels/bare.i/config .config
7. make oldconfig
8. make dep ; make clean ; make bzImage ; make clean
9. cd drivers/net/hamradio/soundmodem
rm *
cp -a /usr/src/linux-2.x.x.orig/drivers/net/hamradio/soundmodem/* .
10. cd scripts
rm -r *
cp -a /usr/src/linux-2.x.x.orig/scripts/* .
11. rm -r linux-2.x.x.orig
12. rm linux-2.x.x/.version

OK, that's it. Now just pack up /usr/src/linux-2.x.x, the
/usr/src/linux symlink, and /install/slack-desc.
