nod.  There's a lot of noise when you do the copy.  A quick ls -l to 
verify that the bzImage symlink now points at your new kernel can be 
used if you have doubts.  And then uname -a when you reboot to verify 
the commit ID matches what you think you installed.  Always a good 
check.  I've installed the wrong .rpm a few times.
