CentOS - Jun 2014 - compiling centos 6.5 linux-2.6.32-431.el6-kernel

Dear all,

            I have compiled the  linux-2.6.32-431.el6-kernel with the following
steps

1.    Make mproper

2.    Make menuconfig

3.    Make

4.    Make modules

5.    Make modules_install
The compilation is successful but there is a huge change in the size of the .ko
generated compared to original .ko from the rpm.

Please suggest the steps to compile the centos  linux-2.6.32-431.el6-kernel and
use the modules and to build the kernel.rpm

Thanks and regards
Dilip Kumar B

It's extremely well documented in the 3 kernel articles on the Wiki:
