Check : (xx.xx.xx is the version of your kernel)
/boot/vmiluz-xx.xx.xx
/boot/System.map points to /boot/System.map-xx.xx.xx
If you use lilo:
/etc/lilo.conf is setup correctly to your new kernel:
vmlinuz-xx.xx.xx (is the bzImage when compiling)
and you ran lilo ?
Check also:
/lib/modules/xx.xx.xx
Or maby you typed something wrong ? as xy.xx.xx ?
