How did you install the newly-constructed kernel? You should be copying
arch/i386/boot/zImage or arch/i386/boot/bzImage (depending on whether
you made a zImage or bzImage). Don't try to copy and use the 'vmlinux'
file that's in the main kernel source directory after the build - x86
systems can't be booted with that image (some other systems, like
PowerPC, will use that uncompressed image file, but x86 is NOT one of
those).
