my version for 2.4 kernels is
1. apt-get install gcc libncurses* kernel-package kernel-headers-[version] kernel-source-[version]
2. cd /usr/src
3. bunzip2 kernel-source-[version].tar.bz2
4. tar xfv kernel-source-[version].tar
5. cd kernel-source-[version]
6. make mrproper
7. make menuconfig (and select everything you need)
8. make dep
9. make-kpkg clean
10. make-kpkg --revision=[hostname].[kernel version] kernel_image
11. dpkg -i [name of kernel].deb
12. lilo
13. shutdown -r now
of course, I never use a modular kernel so I don't do anything with modules...YMMV.
-d.

How did you build your kernel? Did you build and install the initial ramdisk (if necessary) for your new kernel?
The usual (as far as I know) way.
make menuconfig make dep make clean make bzImage make modules make modules_install
Then mkinitrd -o <initrd.img> /lib/modules/<new_modules_dir>
After that I copied the System.map and initrd.img to the /boot dir.
Finally I boot using grub.
Talk about going about it the hard way :-)
