when you configured and compiled did you
1. make config
2. make dep
3. make clean
4. make bzImage
5. make modules
6. make modules_install
7. make install
this cleans up stale dep's and assures that modules and dependancys are
installed correctly. the last step REPLACES your old kernel and reconfigures
lilo.
do your backup first!!
hope that helps.
you will get a bootable kernel about half the time using short cuts but will
always have dependancy problems and un-accountable errata.
