You need to copy the new bzImage (arch/*/boot/bzImage) into place, and
re-run lilo for the changes to take effect.
   



no he does not.

He only needs to run 'make install' which will do the copying and lilo-rerun.
 

Unless the script is smart enough to mount /boot for him, he should 
probably do that first.

You didn't re-run lilo.

ln will not overwrite an existing directory symlink. Or make it easier by
setting the symlink USE flag.

 
 then:
 make menuconfig and
 make  make modules_install

You forgot make install

 then change /etc/lilo.conf to the new(and only) kernel

Rerun lilo after changing lilo.conf. Or if you can't remember to do that
every time, use GRUB :)

 yet still:

 uname -r
 2.6.12-gentoo-r6

 Why? This was during an attempt to compile Beagle.


you forgot:

'make install'

or better:
'make all modules_install install'

and everything will be fine - if your lilo-conf points to 'vmlinuz' and 
'vmlinuz.old' of course.
It will even rerun lilo for you.
