well, first you need to mount your boot partition and do a
Code:
mv /boot/bzImage /boot/bzImage.old


then compile your new kernel and
Code:
cp /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot/bzImage


and that should do it.
someone let me know if i missed something
hope this helps

Make sure you have mounted your /boot partition. See this thread for a good suggestion at the end from RAC:
