A precise guide to building a custom Linux kernel – Saverio Miroddi – 64K RAM SYSTEM  38911 BASIC BYTES FREE

Under certain circumstances, it can be necessary to build a customized Linux kernel, for example, with a different configuration, or with patches applied.

This is a relatively typical task, so there is plenty of information around, however, I’ve found lack of clarity about the concepts involved, outdated and incomplete information, etc.

For this reason, I’ve decided to write a small guide about this task, which can be used only as copy/paste reference, but also fully read, in order to get a better understanding of the concepts involved..

Hi, how to create DEB packages?

This is a complex task, unfortunately, and for kernel packages, it's even more complex.

I've written about DEBs/PPAs here. I've also created a project.

I haven't written about preparing kernel packages; you may want to have a look at this project for that.
