Get kernel source from a www.kernel.org mirror.
cp newkernel.gz /usr/src
cd /usr/src
tar zxpvf newkernel.gz

cp /etc/conf.modules conf.modules.old
mv /lib/modules /lib/modules.old

cd /usr/src/linux
make mrproper

make xconfig or menuconfig
make dep; make clean; make bzImage;make modules; make modules_install
cp /usr/src/linux/system.map /boot/System-2.2.1.map
cp /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/boot/bzimage /boot/vmlinuz-2.2.1

Add to /etc/lilo.conf,
then run /sbin/lilo -v

image = /boot/vmlinuz-2.2.1
label = linux221
root = /dev/hdb1

This is basically a script I use.
