I've looked on kernel.org, in the kernel sources, it its not really clear,
from what I would see. If someone could tell me exactly what are the best
and/or what Linus uses versions of gcc, etc. for compiling the different
kernels? (2.0/2.2/2.4/2.5) Thanks!

For the kernel you are interested in, look in Documentation/Changes
All the requirements are listed.
For current 2.4 kernels, 2.95.x is the minimum. 2.96 works great.

Top level README has this info, as does the Documentation/Changes file.

I don't recommend gcc 3.0 for kernel compiles as I had problems with it on
the system I tried it on.

What problem exactly? I've had zero problems in the last 5 months.

I've been building everything with 3.0.x and haven't had any problems,
half a dozen machines and several months running.

Seconded, I've been using x86 custom-built kernels with gcc 3.0.3
for a few weeks, and IIRC the MDK kernel rpm boots for me on alpha too.

I did get tons of warnings when compiling (I would assume everyone else
did). But I ignored those since it says "this is obsolete"
After booting, I had so many ECC errors (I don't recall if they were
correctable or not) that I had to give up on it.
Unless debian messedup the 3.0.3 compile it didn't work for me.
