I always build my own kernels and it's not so difficult. While testing
though you should leave the old kernel in your bootmenu! It has the
added advantage you can build most needed modules into the kernel and
leaving everything not needed out (also as module) no need to
blacklist anything, just do not compile it. And the system should be
faster as you can make it fully processor specific.
