It's unlikely that your fonts are compiled into your kernel.  Someplace in
<make menuconfig> there's an option to <enable loadable module support>.
Select it,  then make parts of your kernel (like sound drivers,
ethernet/slip drivers) modules.
	Then after you make zImage,  make modules and make
modules_install.
