i doubt it, but i wanted to give it a go i would boot into the expert
mode, and when it asked me about my apt sources i would enter 'sarge' by
hand:

$ grep sarge /etc/apt/sources.list
deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ sarge main contrib non-free
deb-src http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ sarge main contrib non-free

i have no idea what the affect of this would be.
