Worth a try:

cd linux
cp .config /root/.config
make mrproper
cp /root/.config .config
make oldconfig
make dep && make clean bzImage modules modules_install

also (not obvious whether you did this or not)
mount /boot (if using a boot partition)
cp arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot/<pickaname>
cp System.map /boot/System.map-<pickaname>

Update your /boot/grub/grub.conf (or menu.lst)
    or
Update your lilo.conf and /sbin/lilo
