Well... you could try using bzImage or modules :-)

bzImage is an alternative build system to zImage - the only different which
matters here is that you can have a bigger kernel.

modules means configuring some kernel options (drivers, mainly) to build as
modules, which means they don't get built into the kernel but are available
to be loaded when needed after you boot.

"make bzImage" is probably your best bet...
