Hi Leif, I think (and I very well could be wrong here) that all the 'make install' does is copy over your newly created kernel image and system map over to your boot directory and, as you said, creates the new stanza in your /etc/lilo.conf for the new kernel image. So do you actually have a /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.9 and /boot/System.map-2.4.9? It could be that it's just saying that stanza's label is 'linux' and points to /boot/vmlinuz, which in turn may be simply pointing to your old kernel image. I don't know -- obviously I'm just guessing here, but if you've got /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.9, then you've got your new kernel. So what was the problem, anyway? Would it just not fully boot with the new kernel image or what? Perhaps I should have asked that question first.
