They run the scripts in /etc/kernel/postinst.d in the postinst, and with initramfs-tools 0.94 or newer this is sufficient to generate an initramfs.

You could also be really lazy while waiting for Debian to make 2.6.35 available and download a 2.6.35 deb from a Ubuntu repository... > I found this http://www.linuxconfig.org/building-kernels-the-debian-way > - the comment down the bottom with the script - looks promising. going > to give this a try. If you do use that script, you should remove the embedded sudos from it. If you do use the script as is, you might want to increase sudo's " timestamp_timeout" value. http://www.wowway.com/~zlinuxman/Kernel.htm is a good guide to building a kernel the Debian way. It is written by d-u regular and is included in the kernel-package documentation as /usr/share/kernel-package/docs/Kernel.htm -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

That is not recommended unless you are building a custom version of a 2.6.32 kernel. There are 2.6.35 stock kernel images available in experimental. For example: linux-image-2.6.35-rc6-686 or linux-image-2.6.35-rc6-amd64. If one of them will not do, you should at least use the config file from one of those as your starting point for configuration of your 2.6.35 source rather than using a 2.6.32 config file. A Debian source package for 2.6.35 is also available in experimental: linux-source-2.6.35. -- .''`.
