I'd love to learn more about doing kernel makes & installs, but the 
documentation was geared toward installing a source RPM, which there doesn't 
seem to be one:
from the README.SUSE:

COMPILING YOUR OWN KERNEL

The kernel sources are found in the kernel-source.$ARCH.rpm package. The
recommended way to produce a binary kernel is:

  (1)  Install kernel-source.$ARCH.rpm. Change to the /usr/src/linux
       directory.
