The potato and woody kernels are basically the same (2.2.19 and 2.2.20
I think). So if you get potato's going, you'll be up-to-date
kernel-wise, unless you want to go for a 2.4-series kernel.
(I saw the other comment about BootX/alias, seems reasonable.) The
kernel file for potato is named vmlinux-2.2.19-pmac. You probably want
to rename it on the exchange volume so the alias thing works.
Will you be upgrading the distribution code too? apt-get dist-upgrade
is your friend.
