Found a v2.4.22 kernel built as a bzImage which boots on the emulated 386 here:
https://smalllinux2.sourceforge.net/That proves that it *is* possible to get a bzImage to boot, so far I've only had luck with older zImage kernels. Unfortunately there is no kernel config to be found anywhere for that distro.
