You missed a few steps...
1) cd /usr/src/linux-2.4
2) make mrproper
3) make menuconfig
   (and load the config you want from configs/ or make your own entirely)
3) make dep
4) make bzImage
5) make modules

That should work. Please reopen this bug if this doesn't work for you.
(it certainly does for me)
