Linux Kernel upgrade

Hi everyone,
I am trying to have a second kernel in my Red hat 2.4.18.
I downloaded the 2.4.9 version and did all the extract and stuff. when I run the command make bzImage I get the following error:

SYNOPSIS

       upgrade-system

DESCRIPTION

       o  Resynchronize the list of available packages.

       o  Upgrade all packages to their newest version.

       o  Remove all obsolete package dependencies.

       o  Clean retrieved archives off the APT cache.

ENVIRONMENT
