Maybe it is in those guides, but the biggest problem with
make menuconfig
is the vast number of choices when starting from scratch.
If you are satisfied with an otherwise generic kernel, use
/boot/config-xxx
as a template. I should have mentioned that in my private message.
If you do clone the stable kernel, it is probably a good idea to
make htmldocs
as in the top level README.
What you are not told is that the results appear in the
Documentation/output/ directory.
Caveat: it is a long time since I compiled a kernel, so some of this may
be dated.
