Salut Frédéric,

in fact, LPI certifications are not based on any distribution at all. As
Alessandro pointed out, any distribution is fine for preparation as long
as it covers all the objectives. This leads to a mixture of several
distributions (at least one using RPM and one using dpkg as packet manager).

With the upcoming revision of the exams some updates were made, i.e.
systemd became an important aspect of the objectives, which may require
a distribution based on SysV init as well as one based on systemd. The
upcoming V4 objectives are available at
http://wiki.lpi.org/wiki/LPIC-1_Objectives_V4 , the changes are
described at http://wiki.lpi.org/wiki/LPIC1SummaryVersion3To4 . V4 is
currently in beta phase, beta exams (in English) are about to take place
for example at OpenRheinRuhr in Oberhausen/Germany at the beginning of
November. Beta exams are free, btw :-)

I personally would choose one Debian/dpkg (based) distribution which is
not biased by other init systems than those mentioned above (for
example, Debian with SysV init) and a RPM-based with the other init
system (e.g. Fedora or CentOS with systemd). This is however a personal
opinion and other opinions are absolutely valid as well. Feel free to
choose whatever you like, as long as you cover all LPI objectives.

Enjoy your exam preparation!

Fabian
