It usually goes...

Code:

make [menu,old,x]config
make bzImage
make modules
make modules_install

I've only done it in RedHat and Fedora, and in both of those, you can end it wil a "make install", and it will cp the new files to where they need to go, create an initrd, and set-up GRUB.

make bzImage

now you know everything about building kernel

and for kernel 2.6, which is default in your distro:

make menuconfig (or config, or xconfig)
make && make modules_install
