you run Potato, which is the version before Woody. Woody is now
stable and has replaced Potato. So your version is neither stable
nor unstable, it is what came before stable. It goes like this:
pre-summer-2002 post-summer-2002 (e.g. NOW)
Potato stable -
Woody testing stable
Sarge - testing
Sid unstable unstable

no, it doesn't. you can run woody without problems. just change
occurrences of potato in /etc/apt/sources.list to woody:
sed -e 's,potato,woody,g' < /etc/apt/sources.list > /tmp/sources
mv /tmp/sources /etc/apt/sources.list
and then execute:
apt-get update
apt-get -u dist-upgrade
then sit back and watch as your system is being upgraded.
