That worked perfectly. Thanks very much. It turns out that anl.gov is
faithfully mirroring kernel.org

wget http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.4/linux-2.4.34.tar.bz2

returns 404 and

wget ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.4/linux-2.4.34.tar.bz2

also fails with file not found. Meanwhile my GUB make bootstrap is continuing.

Cheers,
Colin.
