You ran make install on what -- the kernel source (after compiling the
kernel)? You probably still forgot to update /etc/lilo.conf.

Since you appear to be using debian, I suggest learning how to use
make-kpkg to compile kernels. The kernel .debs generated by make-kpkg
take care of all of the bootloader stuff for you.
