Welcome back to the world, Rip. :)
While you were sleeping Woody became the stable distribution (it's been
stable since last July).
In fact, a revision has been released and Woodyr1 is now stable.
Potato is still in the Debian archives, but many are expecting support
to be discontinued in a few months. Since you're installing to a new
hard drive from scratch anyway, this might be a good time to move up to
Woodyr1.
A 2.2 kernel is installed by default; for a 2.4 kernel just type "bf24"
at the initial prompt when you boot the installation CD.
