Oh man.. I just spent about 4 days installing packages and reconfiguring it from scratch, including rolling a new kernel. Not having to completely redo all of it again from a Woody CD would be most preferred. Is there any sort of Potato-to-Woody (2.2 to 3.0) automated update procedure implemented?

Welcome back to the world, Rip. :)
While you were sleeping Woody became the stable distribution (it's been stable since last July).
In fact, a revision has been released and Woodyr1 is now stable.
Potato is still in the Debian archives, but many are expecting support to be discontinued in a few months. Since you're installing to a new hard drive from scratch anyway, this might be a good time to move up to Woodyr1.
A 2.2 kernel is installed by default; for a 2.4 kernel just type "bf24" at the initial prompt when you boot the installation CD.
