That depends on your kernel settings. If you configured the kernel for
initrd and to have important drivers such as for your hard drive or root file
system as modules then you need to set it up for initrd. That means using
the --initrd option to make-kpkg and appropriate settings in
/etc/kernel-img.conf.
But if you compile it without needing initrd then it's not an issue.
