Your question is a little confusing.  Here are several possible
scenarios and answers:

Q1: I have an Oxygen (Materhorn... LRP... EigerStein... EigerStein2
Beta...) release and I want to upgrade my kernel to the version I
compiled.
A1: Copy bzImage over to the boot disk, overwriting the file "linux" on
the boot disk.

Q2: I want to create my own LRP from scratch.
A2: Read docs over at http://www.linuxfromscratch.com - this is REALLY
from scratch.

You should go to http://leaf.sourceforge.net/ and read up on the Linux
boot process.  You should also read the LRP Developer's Guide that I
wrote (what's the URL Mike?)

You really should clarify your question so we can answer better...
