It's make bZimage (note the capital "Z".)

I couldn't count the times I've done that in a rush to a new kernel.:D

make bZimage
Is that the new Zorro kernel? As opposed to the intellectual kernel....bzImage? :D

Hehe :) It's capital "I" not "Z"

And it's not required at all when you move to kernel 2.6 -- on 2.6, you make mrproper && make menuconfig && make && make modules_install instead. "make" does what "make clean && make dep && make bzImage && make modules" did in 2.4.
