Kernel compilation problem

Hello there,

I'm having some trouble compiling my own kernel. Hopefully this is a simple question.

After downloading the kernel, I did `make defconfig`, and then I turned on some driver support, e.g. realtek wifi support. Then when I tried but build with make zImage, the system restarts the configuration. I have no idea why it would do that. Please help.
