sure ! when you don't have re-compiled , only 1 install config
and if your install config is kernel.ppc, this "1" is.. yes, the ppc'

bzzzzzzzzzzI.!. I've never tried a bzImage . just vmlinux, which is ok

you made a bzzzzzzzzzz and you compare 2 vmlinux ?
oh well, I can't understand since I do not know what this bzzzz is there 
for, so what you've done exactly when making a new one.

make xconfig :
- you have to click FIRST on "load configuration from file"
- on the popup, you write .config
------------> (the copy of the /boot/config -changed with your prefs and 
being mv to /usr/src/linux/.config)

- ONLY after that you save and kouitt !
and next, you ask the shell to make dep and so on...
