Odd. It should've run lilo for you and backed up the old kernel. When you did
dpkg -i kernel-image-2.2.xx<version>.deb did it run lilo? Didn't it also copy
the modules into /lib/modules/2.2.17? I had no problems whatsoever using
make-kpkg. Did you configure the proper modules for the new kernel? You have
to enable module support, too. I need a little more information from you.
What output do you get when running make-kpkg?
Did you install the Debain package that it created? Sounds like you may have
skipped that.
