Great, now which Debian distribution came with 2.0.36 ?

Actually, it's a bit of an odd one. This is the 5th laptop and 7th hard disk this distribution has 
been on without actually being re-installed. I just apt-get dist-upgrade the distro, and use some 
self built boot floppies to use tar -cz / | nc to move the whole shebang over onto a new laptop when 
I upgrade.

I really probably could do with a re-install, but if it ain't broke....
