There are three ways of building the kernel:

  make vmlinux
  make zImage
  make bzImage

They all build the same kernel, but zImage and bzImage are compressed.  bzImage
is the smallest.  Look at /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/boot/Makefile if you're
curious about how the compressed images are made.

If you built `vmlinux', try `zImage' instead.  If you built `zImage', try
`bzImage' instead.

If you still have problems, post the exact error message(s).

Cheers,

John
