You need to update lilo.conf. You will need to copy BzImage,
and System.map to /boot. This is how its done..
First delete the modules for the kernel you are compiling,
located in /lib/modules/
make dep && make bzImage && make modules && make modules_install
cp arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot/vmlinuz-2.2.14 (or other vesion)
cp System.map /boot/System.map-2.2.14
next you need to edit, /etc/lilo.conf and
either make a new label entry for it, or simple copy
over the existing SMP kernel so you don't have to.
After this is done, do /sbin/lilo
then reboot.. if you need more detailed information,
look in /usr/doc/mandrake/en/index.html and
then select the user guide and goto Chapter 11
titled "Compiling and installing new kernels"
hope this helps..
