After you copy the configuration file to .config do "make oldconfig". If the
kernel you're compiling is newer than the Debian kernel you're running,
you'll be asked some questions; if you don't know what they are answer "no".
There is a tutorial for using kernel-package; that's The Debian Way to
compile kernels. You can find it here:
