The way I do it seems much simpler. 

make dep ; make clean
make bzlilo
make modules
make modules_install
make install

I dont think the last step is necessary, but I do it to be sure. It makes
sure everything is linked properly, and runs lilo for you. 
This works on my Debian Woody box well. It also woorks on Potato with
kernel 2.2.
Does anyone know If I will need to re-work my firewall rules if I update to
2.4 ??
