There are lots of links if you search for "compile linux kernel" on your
favourite search engine.
You don't need any extra tools,
download the required kernel source
cd /usr/src/linux
make menuconfig or make xconfig to start with configuration process
Once done you can type
make clean && make modules && make && make install
One link that I got from search results
http://linuxplanet.com/linuxplanet/tutorials/202/1/
Also, it would be helpful if you tell us which distro it is, that will
be useful as there are certain packages that help you make deb, rpm, etc
of the newly compiled kernel. That will make your task easier.
