After that you should copy arch/i386/boot/bzImage to /boot. You should name it vmlinuz-2.6.1 or something like that. After that, you need to update the boot loader configuration. If your boot loader is LILO, you also need to run lilo to recreate the boot sector; GRUB doesn't need that. After that, it's good to go.
