Glen,
I burned disks from the un-official ISOs generated in late December.
Yes, it installed 2.2.19, but also came with a plethora of 2.4.x
kernel images, including 2.4.17-y, and source. I immediately
installed 2.4.17-idepci and rebooted. No problem.
http://www.linuxiso.org now has snapshots (of the 1st 3 disks)
built on 03-Jan. (linuxiso.org does a passthru to ftp.kando.hu.)
Since you have a slow link at home, this is the way I would do it,
since it will *greatly* reduce the amount of data to be downloaded.
Also, if you set it up using the CDs, then you only have to:
apt-get update && apt-get upgrade
