That's impossible. Woody is 3.0.
You're probably just confusing yourself. Debian versions always have a
version number, but they also have a "code name". If the code name is
confusing, just say

It requires at least a 386 to run. The kernel of the GNU/Linux system
(Linux) is a 32 bit kernel and 386 is the start of 32 bit chips from
Intel.

Hi Derek
I remember hearing about Corel, I never knew Debian was to be its successor,

I have had some success with a few distros for example Redhat, Mandrake,
