Building 2.6 kernels is different to building 2.4 kernels.   If I recall 
correctly, for a 2.4 kernel you do

make prep
make bzImage
make modules
make modules_install
make install

On the other hand, for 2.6 I regularly do:

make
make modules_install
make install

There's no "make prep" any more and the default target builds the kernel 
and its modules.
