First you have to enable modules and RAM filesystem (at present I don't
remember the exact message) in making xconfigur of your new kernel
Then, in /usr/src, mv <your new compiled linux directory> <linux version
name> and ln linux <linux version name>.
E.G.: (Linux-2.2-18mdk and assuming you had already re-named your old Linux
directory so you compiled in Linux directory)
mv linux linux-2.2-18mdk
ln -s linux-2.2-18mdk linux
pay attention that your new /lib/modules are on a same name directory
copy to /boot bzImage and System.map:
cp /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot/vmlinuz-2.2-18mdk
cp /usr/src/linux/System.map /boot/System.map-2.2-18mdk
and now it comes:
cd /boot
mkinitrd initrd-2.2-18mdk.img 2.2-18mdk
then you have to update your (LILO) bootloader
