Matt,

Good to here things are working now.  I know of no Thinkpads that can boot
bzImages (though I do not know many Thinkpads) - which is why the 'tecra' disks
work (i.e. they are zImages).  I would highly recommend the kernel-package
package (i.e. make-kpkg).  It really converted me and it makes compiling the
kernel (and installing it) a breeze.
