Hi Jay....
You simply do too much things in the wrong order...
make config (or menuconfig)
make dep
make bzImage
make modules
make modules_install
cp arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot/vmlinuz-2.x.y
cp System.map /boot/System.map-2.x.y
modify /etc/lilo.conf to apply to new kernel image and run lilo
note: x.y indicate the kernel version. i use this system since i use to
change
them frequently and maybe you don't need.
it also can appear ex: /boot/vmlinuz-custom or whatever you want.
it's just important you remember than to put the same name in lilo.conf
