To make menuconfig you need to have a package that provides ncurses-dev
installed, like libncurses4-dev, as well as the other tools you need
to build the kernel (binutils, gcc, patch, make, libc6-dev, bin86).
In case you aren't already, it's also a very good idea (and saves a
lot of hassle in the medium term) to use kernel-package to build
your kernel.
