  Quick tarball install with proper kernel settings
  --------------------------------------------------
+If you are running the target kernel, then you should be
+able to do :
+
+make clean modules
+(and as root or with sudo)
+make install
+depmod -a
+
+If the make complains about missing files, then you may need
+to specify the source directory :
+
  make KDIR=/path/to/kernel/linux-2.x.x/ clean modules
  # as root
  make KDIR=/path/to/kernel/linux-2.x.x/ install
+depmod -a

  sudo make KDIR=/path/to/kernel/linux-2.x.x/ clean modules install
  # Lazy tip: I'm lazy so I just have an script in $HOME/bin/build that'll do:
  # sudo make KDIR=/home/mcgrof/linux clean modules install
+# sudo depmod -a
  # and have /home/mcgrof/linux as a symlink to the latest kernel ;)
