I googled and couldn't find the .deb kernel package
which supports highmem( its available in testing
version only)
So I think I need to use the latest 2.4.x kernel from
kernel.org. If I am using debian kernel packages, then
I can get security updates from debian.
Is kernel.org provides security updates? If so , how
to apply the updates without disturbing applications
running on a production server?
Please suggest me

You need a kernel that supports large amounts of
RAM. You could get
the sources and compile it yourself which can take
some time, but I
personally found very easy to do. I would think that
there is a .deb
package of a kernel with this support as well, but I
don't know that
much about apt. Perhaps do: "apt-cache search
kernel" and see if
anything jumps out at you.
I'd be happy to help you compile your own kernel.

Hai,
I installed woody on my dual processor,2 GB RAM
server. I have enabled smp support by installing
kernel-image-2.4.18-smp. Now it shows dual
processor.
But the os detects my RAM as 900 MB only. How do I
enable the os to detect actual RAM(2 GB)?
Please help me
