It seems you have given make zImage. If so, give make bzImage. I think this shud solve the problem.
Actually, for 2.6 kernels the prescribed method for building has changed. You should do:
make [old|x|g|menu]config (this step must be done at least once, even if you are using an old config)
make
make modules_install (must be as root)
make install (must be as root)
Also in order to build a 2.6 kernel you must have updated several utilities. If you run RH you can get the proper util RPMs from here:

Also it is probably worth reading this:
