bzImage and vmlinux files

[Brett I. Holcomb]

While building kernels I notice that I end up with a bzImage and a vmlinux 
files.  The bzImage I copy to /boot as a vmlinuz-xxxxx and it is specified 
in lilo.conf.  What is the vmlinux file for?  Why is it generated.  Is it 
the uncompressed version of bzImage?
