First, make sure you have emerged the kernel's sources.

Second, check that the newer sources have been selected: 'eselect kernel
list' followed by 'eselect kernel set'.

Build the kernel, either using genkernel or make triumvirate (make
menuconfig && make && make modules_install)

Install the new kernel in /boot.

Reboot.

Warning: packages that build their own kernel modules, e.g., xtables-addons,
must be re-emerged prior to rebooting.
