Call me stupid but Corel is Debian.

You should be able to change the sources.list file to point to Debian.

Do 

apt-get update
apt-get dist-upgrade

and you will have a Debian machine.  I am fairly certain this works, but 
can verify through the Debian ranks if you like.  (i.e. no need to wait 
for Xandros)
