[ale] Upgrade to 2.4.2 kernel procedures

[Glenn C. Lasher Jr.]

While we're on this subject, is there any information out there about what
settings Red Hat (or any other distro for that matter) uses when they run
make [x|menu]config prior to compiling a kernel?  It would be kind of cool
to compile your own and have it just drop right in.  I haven't tried this
in a couple of years (since the advent of 2.2).
