Hi Charles,

I started using Glusterfs back in June. I initially tried 3.0.4 on Debian Squeeze. We ran into some problems as detailed at http://gluster.org/pipermail/gluster-users/2010-June/004841.html (and previous mails in that thread).

I note that it was a testing release of Debian which brings its own complications, but I also note that Ubuntu uses a lot of the packages from Debian. I also notice there has since been a 3.0.5 release.

But we did end up switching to CentOS for that GlusterFS 3.0.4 deployment and didn't experience any similar problems.

We're mainly a Debian/Ubuntu shop - but if you're trying things out, you might want to consider doing an install on a vanilla CentOS.

     I am getting started with GlusterFS and am starting with the latest 
version of Ubuntu.  Is it recommended to use the standard or the cloud version 
of Ubuntu?  Is another OS recommended?
   Thanks
