you will have your kernel in

/usr/src/linux/arch/i386/boot/bzImage

copy it to /boot/bzImage-2.6.10
copy /usr/src/linux/System.map to /boot/System.map-2.6.10
copy /usr/src/linux/.config to /boot/.config-2.6.10

put the location of the kernel in menu.lst. The other two files are for your later convenience.

I have no such file in no such path.  I copied the bzImage from the
kernel tree to /boot and modified menu.lst accordingly.  When I reboot
to that kernel -- kernel panic!

at least grub found the kernel and started booting. It may tell you why it panic'ed - like you gave it the incorrect location for the root file system.
