I think you just type 'linux26' at the boot prompt on the cd.  Press F1 to 
bring up the help to check.  However I think this is 2.6.8.

Are you saying the installer won't actually run on your machine with 2.4?  If 
it does it probably better to install using the 2.4 kernel, then upgrade to 
2.6 by installing the relevent kernel-image package.  You'll then end up with 
both options on your Grub boot menu.

Cheers,

David.
