RH linux kernel woes

At the risk of being severely flamed, I have a very simple question. If I
wanted to build a kernel on a redhat 5.1 machine and install it properly,
how would I go about doing this. I have tried the normal technique of
"make xconfig", configure the kernel, then "make dep ; make clean ; make
zlilo" but the kernel gets deposited into the wrong area (/ instead of
/boot). While examining /boot, I realized that there is a lot more junk
in there than just System.map and vmlinuz. Should I just place the new
kernel and System.map over the old or what? Again, I am used to Slackware
systems so this is a little strange for me. Please help. Thanks.
