When I did the install on my friend's laptop, the first thing I did
after corel's install was done was add my local mirror of slink,
security.debian.org, the y2k updates & the XFree86 3.3.5 to its
sources.list and update & upgrade.
Thinking back, I don't recall whether I just used 'apt-get upgrade' or
if I remembered to do a dist-upgrade.
Didn't have any problems other than not getting sound working on the
machine (yet).
