You can built the "official" debian kernel-images using the following 
commands:

apt-get source kernel-image-2.6.8-i386
cd kernel-image-2.6.8-i386-2.6.8
dpkg-checkbuildeps (that will check for missing build-deps, install them 
if missing)
fakeroot debian/rules flavours=686-smp binary

Please try it and followup if it does not help.
