In theory you want to look at a distribution that uses Debian packaging tools as well as one that uses RPM. On that account the two are reasonable choices. The bigger issue is that you will have to find a distribution that still uses System-V init, which rules out any current mainstream distribution with the exception of Debian (until Debian 8 comes out a few weeks from now, at any rate). It's probably a good idea to hang on to a Debian 7.x installation image. Other than the packaging tools and init system, as far as LPIC-1 is concerned all modern Linux distributions are basically the same, so use whatever you like. Although, in the age of virtualisation trying different distributions is no longer a big deal, and a little horizon widening never harmed anybody. Anselm -- Anselm Lingnau ... Linup Front GmbH ...
