I agree, stick with some kind of RedHat variant, esp if you aren't a UNIX pro. If you haven't purchased hardware, AMD64 currently gives the best bang for the buck (by far).
Fedora Core is RedHat's free/community/desktop/bleeding_edge distribution. CentOS is based on RHEL (RedHat Enterprise Linux) which is more conservative and focuses more on stability, with a longer release cycle. -Yonik On 3/8/06, Ian Holsman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > If you are not familiar with linux I would go with RedHat enterprise > (or something like CentOS which is a clone). > > It really depends on you, other people swear by ubuntu and debian. > > regards > Ian > > On 3/9/06, Mike.Austin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > What free Linux distribution is best or would you recommend for fast web > > application or for solr in particular?
