Great; glad you got it to work;
I just copied the resulting kernel as a new file within the /boot directory,
like
cp /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/bzImage /boot/kernel.2.4.4
(I made up the kernel.2.4.4 name; I'm very creative when it comes
to filenames :)
then went into /etc/lilo.conf and changed the image name, like
boot=/boot/vmlinuz
to
boot=/boot/kernel.2.4.4
and re-ran lilo.
and it has been smooth sailing.. Upon reboot, I realised I had
not included FAT32 support; so I re-did the MAKE XCONFIG step,
followed by make bzImage, and it Lived Happily Ever After!
