Picking a Linux Distribution

RT runs on Arch Linux, Debian, FreeBSD, NetBSD, RHEL, Fedora, Solaris, SuSE, Gentoo, OpenBSD, and more. If you maintain other Linux systems, it's best to stick with the Linux you have the most experience with. If you're just starting and don't have a preference, it's safe to use Linux distributions based on either Debian or Red Hat, where you'll find guides (including Fedora, and Ubuntu). The ManualInstallation page had details on installation steps.
