I don't know why you are trying to build a 2.4 kernel, unless there is a
specific reason for it, but you have to type:
make dep clean && make modules bzImage
then as root:
make modules_install
I highly suggest you try the 2.6 kernel first. As for your black screen
problem, change the line that says vga=788 to vga=normal.
Here is my entry for my 2.6 kernel (with vga=normal):
image=/boot/bzImage-2.6.1
label="linux2.6.1"
root=/dev/hdc5
initrd=/boot/initrd-2.6.1.img
append="devfs=nomount splash=silent noapic acpi=off hdb=ide-cdrom
hdd=ide-cdrom"
read-only
vga=normal
If that still doesn't work, I guess you could try following my
instructions from the beginning, skipping the parts about bootsplash.
But try vga=normal with your 2.6 kernel first.
