Cool!

As far as the kernel goes, the steps are as follows, assuming you have
a haiku source checkout already:
- if it doesn't already exist, create the subfolder build/user_config_headers/
- copy build/config_headers/kernel_debug_config.h into the above folder.
- open that file, and at the top you will find the line:
#define KDEBUG_LEVEL 2
Change that to 0, then clean and jam -qj4 kernel
The resulting kernel binary will end up in
generated/objects/haiku/x86/release/system/kernel/kernel_x86, and can
subsequently be installed to /system.
As far as the unindexed partition goes, simply go into DriveSetup, and
choose to format the corresponding partition with BFS. The
corresponding dialog will have a checkbox that reads "Enable query
support", which needs to be unchecked to disable indexing.
Note that a few caveats apply to such a partition, most notably, as
the above checkbox indicates, it won't be able to participate in BFS
queries. This also means that things like the registrar won't be able
to locate apps by signature from it. Consequently, if you want an app
to handle e.g. particular file types, it should be located on a
query-enabled partition, since otherwise actions like automatically
launching said application when double clicking a corresponding file
type may fail.
Hope that helps,
Rene
