I personally would recommend debian GNU/Linux[1] for any machine as it runs very stable on a wide variet of platforms . But since you are mentioning a training institute and if you are training for RHCE . RHCE training: Its always good to have support from Redhat . You can contact the Indian office of Redhat . More details at http://www.apac.redhat.com/training/ If you want to start small you can run CentOS[2] which is free of cost and regarding hardware CentOS will run on p4 with 512 MB ram ( also on 256 but a bit slow ) Linux training : If you want a distro for training institute independent of RHCE course . then ahppily go for Debian squeeze which IMHO is very stable thouh is in testing will become Debian stable soon . Squeeze will be better than lenny( the current stable) because of new packages . OT on your training if you are looking for some Linux based courses do have a look at FOSS electives& books from NRCFOSS[3][4] . you can fine tune some of them for your needs. 1.
