I'm using debian woody. Been compiling kernels since quite many years on Slack, RH and Mandrake. It's very few times I have completely been successful booting with the compiled kernel in debian (Have used sarge too).
Have a look at the packages build-essential and kernel-package. The following works for me on a Debian stable:
cd /usr/src/linux/ make menuconfig make-kpkg clean make-kpkg --revision <revision> --append_to_version -<appendix> \ kernel-image cd ..
After that, the image is installed with "dpkg -i <kernel-image>".
Also have a look at this excellent step-by-step HOWTO:
