Actually - the idiot proof way to do this is:

1. put the floppy in the drive (/dev/fd0)
2. type the following:

[/usr/src/linux]$ make zdisk

If you have already compiled the kernel, this will just compile a few
files again and then put zImage on the floppy for you without you even
knowing where it is hidden.
