First of all, why do you want to upgrade your kernel ?
Next, these are the steps to upgrade your kernel :
- apt-get install kernel-package
- Download the kernel source under the format linux-2.4.x.tar.gz
or linux-2.4.x.tar.bz2 on the web site www.kernel.org by example
- put this file in /usr/src
- mv your linux directory in linuxold
- tar zxvf for the .tar.gz file and tar xvjf for the .tar.bz2 file
then you have a new linux directory
- cd linux
- make xconfig
- choose the options for your kernel
- when done make-kpkg clean
- make-kpkg --revision=kernel_name-2.4.18 kernel_image
- when done you'll have a nice deb package under /usr/src
- finally install it with dpkg -i linux*.deb
- reboot

>>What would be CD image one needs to download to get 2.4.17

You have to grab an unoffical iso image of woody but i dunno
what kernel exactly is it ...
