The file you probably need is inside
arch/<your-architecture>/boot/

For example, on x86 computers, you need the image:
arch/i386/boot/bzImage

This is the image you copy to /boot, and add the right line in
/boot/grub/menu.lst for.

Normally you just take the lastest kernel, and it should compile
without errors...
