Hi Bryan,
If you do pick Ubuntu as your server OS, then I just want to say upfront
that your best bet will be to use the LTS 10.04 version of Ubuntu.
That's the one most heavily used by different Evergreen sites that adopt
Ubuntu, ours included. Other versions may work, but may require some
extra tweaking. That said, Debian is still the distribution most often
suggested.
The downloads page (http://evergreen-ils.org/downloads.php) should give
you all the links you'll need to get yourself started. I'd go with the
recommendation on that page to install the latest stable release series,
which is currently Evergreen 2.1. Let us know how that goes for you
though, we'll try to help where we can.
Good luck as you begin your work!

Am about to start an attempt at building an evergreen server in

I haven't settled on anything yet but was thinking about using Ubuntu
server as a platform and picking my way throughthe online How-To install
from the evergreen site, would be glad of any advice.
With thanks,
