The file is named bzImage not bzimage. And *should* be located below the 
build directory. If you build like I do you would be in 
/usr/src/linux-${VERSION} 
#ls arch/i386/boot
bbootsect    bbootsect.s  bsetup    bsetup.s  compressed  Makefile  tools
bbootsect.o  bootsect.S   bsetup.o  bzImage   install.sh  setup.S   
video.S

Copy the file (or mv if you are sure that you won't need it again) bzImage 
to wherever your bootloader looks for it.  
I would do cp arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot/vmlinuz-${VERSION}
Edit /etc/lilo.conf to look for the new image 
#lilo
Added 2.4.14-tables
Added 2.4.20 *
Added 2.4.18
Now you should be able to boot and select the new kernel image.
