1. 'uname' is not updated after installing new '2.4.20' kernel??

hi;

using gentoo RC2.

I was using kernel 2.4.19.

when I did emerge 2 days ago, it downloaded a new kernel 2.4.20.

Ok, So I went to /usr/src and made a link to the new directory
and configured new kernel and build it (and modules, modules_install
etc...)
as I have done zillon times before:

lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root  22  Mar  4 09:37 linux ->
linux-2.4.20-gentoo-r1
drwxr-xr-x   16 root     root  840 Mar  4 09:36
linux-2.4.19-gentoo-r10
drwxr-xr-x   16 root     root  840 Mar  4 10:02 linux-2.4.20-gentoo-r1

next, as usuall, I copied the newly compiled bzImage to /boot/bzImage

total 3944
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root      1485414 Mar  4 10:05 bzImage
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root      1283810 Mar  1 18:48 bzImage.old

next I rebooted. btw, I am not using lilo, but the other boot manager
I think it is called grub.

so, after I shutdown the system and boot, I select as before the file
/boot/bzImage using the command

now, when the system is up, I do 'uname' expecting it to say 2.4.20,
but
it is still saying 2.4.19 !

How could this be? is there another method to verify which kernel
version
I am running??
