Hi,
make-kpkg takes all the steps that you took, and,
additionally, tells dselect/dpkg and friends that you have the kernel
installed, and it installs documentation in /usr/doc. It also adds an
easy method to remove it all cleanly, and warns you if you try to
remove a running kernel or a kernel that is mentioned in your
lilo.conf file.
You have done the kernel install flawlessly; make-kpkg is
there to ensure that the rest of us can install the kernel, even
before our first cup of coffee. It is a convenience measure (but then
again, all non machine code languages are convenience measure ;-)
