It depends on how much "value add" the distribution has around the
kernel.

The well-known distributions all use an initrd to bring userland up
and they also have more or less distribution-specific bootloader
management methods.

If you want to run your own kernel you have to make sure that it is
configured and installed to fit what your distribution expects in
terms of bootloader and initrd, unless you want to break free from
the distribution's expectations and assumptions and manage more
things manually.

All of this isn't always so well documented by distributions.

Maybe start by exploring the kernel make menuconfig for a day or two.
