I hope you have better luck with Wheezy.  I am running a custom-built
3.0.0 kernel on Wheezy right now, and I am not having any problems.
There are often dependencies between the kernel releases and some
other packages closely related to the kernel, such as initramfs-tools,
libc*, udev, etc.  I suspect you will do better with Wheezy.
