You need a kernel with the following set:

  CONFIG_HIGHMEM4G=y

To the best of my knowledge none of the Debian stable kernels set it.
Therefore you will need to either compile your own kernel or to jump
ahead and use a newer kernel.  The linux-2.4.26 version from
debian-proposed-updates has this set and is probably the easiest way
to go.

  deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian/ woody-proposed-updates main contrib

  apt-get install kernel-image-2.4.26-2-686
