Re: Newbie question - Which Linux?

as far as i know they're all pretty much the same when talking about db
compatability. here's my take on the two i've dealt with:

suse really easy, but if you have trouble,
a great deal of the help online is in
german

redhat a little less stable in some areas,
for some reason they insist on using
the VERY latest kernel. but their
use of "rpm's" makes everything real
easy, and the mailing lists and help
online is mostly english.
