What are the steps that I must follow to compile a knoppix custom kernel?
It will be as compatible as knoppix kernel?

use google. if you ever have a question again, do that first. but allright, google on "debian kernel compile" (knoppix is, after hdinstall, a debian system).

hint: in the how-to (you'll see it on top of googles page) you see the author recommends using the .config from knoppix. well, you dont have to do that - skip it, just start "make xconfig" on a clean vanilla kernel (or after applying patches, I recommend googeling on con kolivas - quite noticable performance increase). xconfig will use the settings of the *current running* kernel. this is the knoppix one, so if you immediately close xconfig, you're kernel will be the same exept being self-made and newer
of course making some adjustments is recommended, why build a kernel yourself if you dont change anything...
