You will want to use 'dist-upgrade' to upgrade from Sarge to Etch.

Right, and if you're a desktop user probably you will be happy keeping
up with 'desktop' and 'gnome-desktop' or 'kde-desktop' tasks, that can
be easily installed using aptitude too. Just run `aptitude install
desktop gnome-desktop` after dist-upgrading.

Please note that 'gnome-desktop' task is different than gnome and
gnome-core metapackages. The metapackages depends on "full GNOME
suite" and just the GNOME essential packages respectively, while
'gnome-desktop' aims a more common desktop, still using GNOME as base.
(eg: It depends on OpenOffice and not Abiword).
