I'm guessing you're targeting ia32?

Anyway no, elilo doesn't understand bz2, just gzip.  On ia64, the kernel
build creates a compressed "vmlinux.gz" image by default, so that's one
of the kernel image name forms elilo recognizes.  On ia32, there still
should be a gzip image option in the kernel build, isn't there?
