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. -- .''`.
