You add first deb http://www.backports.org/debian stable initrd-tools module-init-tools to your apt.sources-list and dist-upgrade only modutils and initrd-tools. Afterwards, kernel, and afterwards the normal upgrade to sarge. Well, to be plain, I think a more recent modutils and initrd-tools should be added to woody with the next point release, and also a new kernel image, both for the boot floppies and in the archive, that emulates 486-opcodes on 386. Also this should be IMHO be noted in the Release-notes. (One could even consider how to force the users to reboot into the new kernel on a 386 before allowing to install glibc. Hm, any small pseudo-package, that's only configurable if 486-opcodes can be executed, and glibc pre-depends on it?)
