First off, the GRand Unified Bootloader has (nearly)always used /boot/grub/menu.lst. Anything else has usually been symlinks to it as grub has to see that file to boot properly without keyboard interaction. In debian Sarge, once you compile that kernel of yours and make it a "real" Debian named kernel, there is a script you should run called "update-grub" update-grub basically automates the building of the menu.lst is also the config for update-grub. It is pretty self explanatory inside the file.
