I do it this way:
mkbootdisk (if I don't have one that _works_, and verify that it works)
make distclean
copy over appropriate configuration file to .config
make menuconfig (or make xconfig)
make dep
make clean
make bzImage
make modules
make modules_install
make install
lilo -v (to check that lilo got configured OK)
