There are to solutions:

1) Set your kernel-* packages on "hold", then they won't get upgraded
   automatically. You can do this in dselect with '='. This is IMHO
   the better solution.

2) You can also compile your kernel with an "epoch" in the revision
   (--revision=3:foo.1.0, for example). Then, the kernel will only be
   upgraded, if the original kernel .deb has a higher epoch
   (currently, it's 3, afaik).
