There's no need to rename the old one, it should be a symlink called "linux"
and be linked to linux-2.0.36, simply do;
cd /usr/src
rm linux
mkdir linux-2.2.5
ln -s linux-2.2.5 linux

I would Now do;
cd /usr/src/linux
cp .config ..
make distclean
cp ../.config .
make oldconfig
make dep zImage # No need for "clean" its been done.
make modules modules_install
Sometimes its not what you do but how you do it.
Dont forget to add the new kernel to /etc/lilo.conf and rerun lilo, or that
will be your next fence to cross.
