If I am not mistaken there is an image of the 2.4.20 kernel in unstable.

~: apt-cache search kernel-image-2.4.20
kernel-image-2.4.20-3-386 - Linux kernel image for version 2.4.20 on 386.
kernel-image-2.4.20-3-586tsc - Linux kernel image for version 2.4.20 on
Pentium-Classic.
...

Anyway, I would suggest compiling from source. So you probably want
to install:

kernel-source-2.4.[...] (or 2.5)
kernel-patch-2.4-preempt
kernel-patch-2.4-lowlatency
alsa-source

Hope that helps.

Burkhard
