Title: Kernel Recompile

Ok, I 
copied the bzImage to the boot directory.  Then I crated a link and called 
it vmlinuz.  The computer booted.  Did this work?

How 
can I tell which kernal I am actually running now?

  I 
  get a kernel panic when I copy the bzimage over the vmlinuz file.  Is 
  this what I am supposed to do?

    So, is the compiles kernel bzImage ???

    Should it be smaller than the original kernal?  

    All I do is copy it over the original kernel and update the path in 
    Grubconfig right?

      I went through xconfig and modified the kernal 
      with the things i need.  How do I get Make to use that result?  
      I use make bzImage, but that asks all the questions over again.  

      Any help would be appreciated.
