My first post to this list!

I'm running Mandrake 8.1 with rieserfs on a 256MB  AMD K6 clocking 350 MHz 
(older machine) and all is well.   I just purchased a Sharp Zaurus SL5500 and 
much to my disappointment it does not talk to my Linux box.  I have spent all 
day trying to upgrade to the 2.4.18 kernel so I can use the usbdnet patch to 
make things right with my Zaurus.  No joy however.  I followed the README 
that came with the 2.4.18 source download.  

After 
make xconfig
make dep
make clean
make bzImage
make modules
make modules_install
cp ~/src/linux/arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot
editing lilo.config to point to new bzImage with lable "2.4.18" (keeping old  
kernel available)
lilo
reboot

then selecting my new kernel from lilo menu system flashes:
 Loading 2.4.18 .............................................
Then it reboots ... and I grit my teeth and wonder why.

What am I doing wrong .. any common newbie (like me) issues and Gotch-ya's?

Thanks
Danny Luker
