1. cd /usr/src/linux # move to your linux source directory
2. cp .config config.save # copy old config to a save file
3. make mrproper # prep for kernel assembly
4. make menuconfig # launch configuration menu app
(this part is very dependant upon your own hardware)

im stuck at the part of cp .config config.save

should i just skip this part? not a linux guy just starting to learn pls help

yes you can skip the config save part. If you are not a Linux guy then why are you rebuilding your kernel? VICIDIAL should run fine on the stick kernel on average hardware. I recommend building your own kernel only if you know what you are doing.
