After make modules_install if you run *make install* it will go thru it's
little spill then it will do the copying of the system.map and bzImage to
/boot for you as well as edit lilo.conf and run /sbin/lilo.  Just double
check /boot to indeed make sure it is setup how you want and double check
/etc/lilo.conf and make sure that is straight too.  Also run /sbin/lilo if
you edit anything in /boot and /etc/lilo.conf to make sure it reboots
correctly.
