you flash a kernel the same way a rom, just flash rom then kernel. elitemod cm7 has both kernel and rom

Ohhh so when I try to install the ROM the kernel will be installed along side it right?! that means its going to be easier than I thought.

what is this super wipe?

yes, many roms come packaged with a kernel, some don't, some require extra packages such as gapps to be flashed as well. the link I sent you just need to flash the rom, all is bundled.
superwipe came about in the g1 days, orginaly by osaka. it runs a script to wipe your phone clean to help insure a good flash of the next rom. there are many variations but I suggest finding one that formats system/cache/data to ext4 as well as wipe
search for superipe+ext4 in the threads
and fyi fastboot -w is an even cleaner wipe but needs to be done at a computer and learn how to use fastboot

GLITE Has this bug where it wont show the notification bar on first boot. One reboot will fix it. Also glite is bit old in terms of ease of use(customization) but it is very good in terms of battery. Elitemod is good too.

Yeah that bug happened to me, I tried to clear dalvik cache and then I updated the launcherpro then it randomly came. Is elitemod more easier and more customisable?what android version is it? Because on glite the battery life is brilliant but it feels like I'm sacrficing widgets (power control), the quick settings I had previously and the overal look is quite 'boring'

So with elite mod would I need to do any overclocking what so ever or anything else? And how can I make a back up of my current glite installion and revert back to it just incase elitemod doesn't work out for me

well your first step, just like when changing to any rom, is boot into recovery and make a backup. then you want to do a full wipe. then flash the next rom
nik3r has made a couple versions of elite mod, the one being suggested to you is based off of cm7 so its gingerbread, same as glite. it is slightly overclocked out of the box and has just about all the options avalible for a rom of its day, far more than glite. as for battery life, if you keep the oc/uv settings as they are you should get just as good battery life. I'm a moderate to heavy user and I do just fine with it
