  install new linux kernel 2.6.30.4 using “make install”, system should show following detail:
  root@ibm-laptop:/usr/src/linux-2.6.30.4# make install
  sh /usr/src/linux-2.6.30.4/arch/x86/boot/install.sh 2.6.30.4 arch/x86/boot/bzImage \
  System.map “/boot”
  In order to use the new kernel image you have just installed, you
  will need to reboot the machine. First, however, you will need to
  either make a bootable floppy diskette, re-run LILO, or have GRUB
  installed.

  Checking for ELILO…No

  GRUB is installed. To automatically switch to new kernels, point your
  default entry in menu.lst to /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.30.4

  ====================
  GRUB menu configuration file menu.lst should be update.
