CentOS has a set of HOWTOS related to kernel rebuilding, and the process should work the same or similar for SL.  See: 
1.) http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/I_need_the_Kernel_Source
2.) http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Custom_Kernel
3.) http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/BuildingKernelModules

These HOWTOS are maintained by Alan Bartlett and Akemi Yagi, who frequent this list too.
