A good starting point is www.debianplanet.org.  There seem to be 2 releases.
Potato is a stable release, and there's an alpha iso image of it on
all mirrors.  It's *old* - Apr 2001, but there appears to be a way to
upgrade it to 2.4 kernel.  Woody is the current release at works, but
I couldn't find alpha iso for it.

Disclaimer - I discovered the above info after about 10 min of
searching.  I never used Debian myself, so if some1 Debian-savvy can
add more precise info, it'd be great.
