Hi. Last night, I've built a kernel 3.11.1 from kernel.org the Debian way (as described in "Debian Linux Kernel Handbook") - without any problems.
My test environment: a fresh installation of Wheezy (7.0.1) on a Sun Ultra 60, i.e. a SCSI machine. I'm going to do a test with an ATAPi/IDE Blade 100 as well, but I have to set up this machine first - that will take a while.
