Of course. A simple 'dd if=/usr/src/linux/arch/i386/boot/bzImage
of=/dev/fd0' will give you a bootable floppy. Not sure about passing the
options of the command line.
But kernel compilation is pretty easy. Be sure you have the source
unpacked in /usr/src/linux. Then copy /boot/config-2.4.15 to
/usr/src/linux/.config (or whatever your current kernel config is).
Then do a 'make oldconfig' first if your source is newer than your
currect kernel and 'make menuconfig' after that to enable scsi emulation.
Then you can compile simply by 'make dep && make bzImage && make modules
&& make modules_install && cp arch/i386/bzImage /vmlinuz-2.4.17 && cp
.config /boot/config-2.4.17'
Then reconfigure /etc/lilo.conf (don't forget the append="hdc=scsi") and
you should be able to boot without problems.
