I know the standard wisdom is "Whichever OP your organization has standardized on is the best OS for installing Evergreen-ILS" however I am in a position to test and try stuff with minimal red tape (barring structural alteration).
I understand Evergreen has been tested on Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora and RHEL. >From your experience what are the hurdles or the differences in using one over another. Presume equal skill in all of these Distros. Are there other distros that work easier, more dependably? Have you gotten EG to work on Puppy Linux, Slackware, Gentoo, Absolute Linux, BSD, AIX, Solaris... I am considering Debian for reasons of the long life of major versions. Ubuntu LTS versions start to feel their age toward the middle of their lifespan, if 10.04 is any indicator. I never ran EG on Ubuntu 8.4, so I don't have firsthand knowledge of your experience with that. -- This Apt Has Super Cow Powers - http://sourcefreedom.com Advancing Libraries Together - http://LYRASIS.org
