Build GNOME ISO manually with latest Linux kernel

Hello! First-time NixOSer here. I have 2 quick questions.

My first question is, how can I manually build the default GNOME ISO that is available here?

Second, how can I build this same ISO except with the latest Linux kernel?

(Just to show that I’ve tried to do my due diligence, is using nix-build on https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/e6e260cbf4b8483962e3eed25d8e261d4220faae/nixos/modules/installer/cd-dvd/installation-cd-graphical-gnome.nix at least headed in the right direction? I tried to find the process or script used by Hydra to automatically make this ISO for the website, but I was seemingly unsuccessful in my search.)

See Building Your Own NixOS CD chapter of the manual. You can either tweak the gnome file or pass a custom config with the path to the gnome file in imports.
