If you can't find your kernel headers it means that they are no longer
in Stable, probably because the kernel was replaced by 2.4.27-2-386. You
can either upgrade to the new kernel image and use the headers from the
Debian repository or you can get the older headers package for your
kernel from snapshot.debian.net. However, I just had a look quickly and
it seems to me that the relevant part of the archive is missing:

http://snapshot.debian.net/archive/2004/08/17/debian/pool/main/k/kernel-image-2.4.27-i386/

So, you might have to upgrade to the newer kernel if you want to compile
modules yourself. Maybe somebody else has a better idea, I am not too
familiar with the particulars of the latest 2.4 Debian kernels. If the
2.4.27-2-386 and the 2.4.27-3-396 kernel versions were security-related
updates then it would probably a good idea to switch anyway.
