There's a small typo above: "make bzimage" should read "make
bzImage" (capital 'I').
You'll also need to copy & rename the System.map and bzImage files.
System.map will be in /usr/src/linux-x.x.x/, do a "cp System.map
/boot/System.map-2.2.19-1" (substitue the correct kernel version -
extraversion numbers for 2.2.19-1).
The bzImage file (your newly compiled kernel) will be in
/usr/src/linux-x.x.x/arch/i386/boot (if you compiled for intel
processor); cd into the ../arch/i386/boot directory and do a "cp
bzImage /boot/vmlinuz-2.2.19-1" (again, substitue the correct kernel
version - extraversion numbers for 2.2.19-1).
As jb said, don't forget to edit /etc/lilo.conf, and run /sbin/lilo.
