zimage



debs,

i'm working on my first kernel recompile. i'm at the
point where i need to move the recompiled kernel to the
to boot location.  unfortunately, i cannot find the
recompiled kernel.

detailed synopis (pursant to kernel.org's,
linux-2.2.14.tar.gz "readme"):

1.  currently running potato on kernel 2.0.36.

2.  downloaded "linux-2.2.14.tar.gz" (from
http://www.kernel.org) to /usr/src.

3.  as root and from /usr/src, i ran "tar xvzf
lin*.tar.gz"

4.  cd to /usr/src/linux

5.  ran "make mrproper"

6.  ran "make config"

7.  configured the kernel

8.  ran "make zImage"

9.  tried to find the newly recompiled kernel
(zimage?/linux?) in /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/boot.  all
that's there is: makefile, bootsect.s, compressed,
install.sh, setup.s, tools, and video.s.


i didn't see error messages during the process and i
always got a prompt after "make" commands.


q:  where may i find the newly recompiled kernel?  

q:  will it have a name other than zimage or linux?

ia, t.
