Kernel Hacking

Hello list,
I was wondering if anybody knew how to build a custom kernel for a Verdex running Open Embedded? I have a USB Ethernet adapter I'd like to get working on my Verdex, it uses the RTL8150 driver. My first thought was to try and add it to gumstix-custom-verdex.conf, but wouldn't you need to enable it in the kernel config first so that it knows to build that module? I found what appears to be the kernel config in:

 ~/gumstix/gumstix-oe/tmp/work/gumstix-custom-verdex-angstrom-linux-gnueabi/gumstix-kernel-2.6.21-r1/linux-2.6.21

So let's say I modify that to include the RTL8150 driver (as a module), how would I rebuild the Verdex image to include a kernel built from that config?

Thanks,
Mike
