Are we talking about 2.4.20 or 2.2.20?  2.2.20 is, AFAIK, still the
default kernel on the boot floppies, and is also available as a
kernel-source and kernel-image package in woody.  2.4.20 is not, and
probably never will be available in woody, since it was not released
until well after woody froze.  Woody does contain both 2.4.18 boot
floppies and kernel-{image,source} packages though.
