This does not look like a kernel that you built yourself. Note the date
when it was built and which compiler was used. If you had built it
directly from source and without going through any Debian-specific
steps, the kernel version would not include "Debian" and would be
built with gcc-6. Also, the date would be around the past days.

It's missing the drivers for your disk controllers. Are you sure
you built the initrd properly and that the SILO entry for "Linux"
points to the correct kernel and initrd?
