[CLUE-Tech] kernel compilation

I'm trying to attach to my kernel the modules necessary to support a CD-RW.
I used make xconfig, found the necessary modules, clicked 'M', made dep,
clean, bzImage, and so on.  The result was a new file:

root at abigail ~/cdrw $ ll /usr/src/linux-2.4.3/arch/i386/boot/bzImage
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root       930896 Dec  8 03:56
/usr/src/linux-2.4.3/arch/i386/boot/bzImage

I copied this file to:

root at abigail ~/cdrw $ ls -ltr /boot/*3-12
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root      2178832 Jun  8  2001
/boot/vmlinux-2.4.3-12
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root        13598 Jun  8  2001
/boot/module-info-2.4.3-12
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root       477638 Sep 30 00:28
/boot/System.map-2.4.3-12
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root       930896 Dec  8 13:50
/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.3-12

Here's my lilo.conf:

root at abigail ~/cdrw $ cat /etc/lilo.conf
boot=/dev/hda
map=/boot/map
install=/boot/boot.b
prompt
timeout=50
message=/boot/message
linear
default=linux-2.4.3-12

image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.3-12
        label=linux-2.4.3-12
        read-only
        root=/dev/hda9

image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.2-2
        label=linux.2.4.2
        read-only
        root=/dev/hda9

I would expect lilo to load my newly-created kernel named
/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.3-12, but it seems to be loading an older one, because:

insmod: scsi_mod: no module by that name found
insmod: sg: no module by that name found
insmod: sr_mod: no module by that name found
insmod: loop: no module by that name found
insmod: iso9660: no module by that name found
insmod: ide-scsi: no module by that name found

Please help!
Thanks,
Jason
