I am not sure exactly what you are asking. The compiled image you copy
to /boot is normaly a gziped or a Big gziped image if you are running on
ix86. On a Sparc system, you can run a gziped or a non-compressed
kernel image. The silo loader will handel eather with no problems. You
just gzip the uncompressed image on a Sparc if you want a compressed
image.
The kernel RPMs for ix86 have both the bzImage and the uncompredded
image in the RPM, but you only realy need the bzImage.
