In fact, the trouble was that the kernel's sources were
linux-2.6.3-13mdk so the modules were installed in
/lib/modules/2.6.3-13mdkcustom.

So I tried:

1) cp arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.3-13mdkcustom.img

(it seems that the extension .img is missing in the doc)

2) mkinitrd -f -v /boot/initrd-2.6.3-13mdkcustom.img 2.6.3-13mdkcustom

(but no initrd-2.6.3-13mdkcustom.img in my /boot directory)

3) in my /etc/lilo.conf:

image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.3-13mdkcustom
        label=2.6.3-13mdkcustom
        root=/dev/hda6
        initrd=/boot/initrd-2.6.3-13mdkcustom.img
        append="devfs=mount acpi=ht resume=/dev/hda5 splash=silent"
        vga=788
        read-only

4) lilo -v

But it complains: to many characters (>=31) in
'/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.3-13mdkcustom'

So I changed as follows:

1) cp arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.3-13eci.img
2) mkinitrd -f -v /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.3-13eci.img 2.6.3-13mdkcustom

(but no initrd-2.6.3-13eci.img in my /boot directory)

3) in my /etc/lilo.conf:

image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.3-13eci
        label=2.6.3-13eci
        root=/dev/hda6
        initrd=/boot/initrd-2.6.3-13eci.img
        append="devfs=mount acpi=ht resume=/dev/hda5 splash=silent"
        vga=788
        read-only
4) lilo -v

But it complains:

Thanks for any help.
