Perhaps you can give us some idea what you are trying to accomplish.
There are many settings that you can configure from your
/etc/sysctl.conf file or through scripts.

For example, if you want to disable IP packet forwarding, you can do:
cat 0 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
or, to enable it:
cat 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward

There are loads of configuration options that you can set that way.

If your question pertains to re-compiling the kernel so you can add or
remove support for other options, or compile modules that can be
dynamically loaded instead of statically loaded, then you can
certainly find a HOWTO about compiling kernels at the Linux
Documentation Project: www.tldp.org
