Not really. But you can upgrade through apt though to whatever distribution you want.

To get your swap working do:

mkswap /dev/hdx?
swapon /dev/hdx?

When you fdisked the MBR you removed the boot loader for Linux. You can edit ntldr but that's a PITA (well maybe not to a windows user) I would recommend the easy route. Boot Knoppix,
apt-get update
apt-get install grub
grub-install /dev/hda
update-grub

That ougtta get you going. I have no idea about anything KDE. Too complicated for me.
