There is no the best or the easiest. People run RT on Arch Linux, Debian, FreeBSD, NetBSD, RH7/8/9, RHEL, CentOS, Fedora, Solaris, SuSE, Gentoo, OpenBSD.
People run RT on Arch Linux, Debian, FreeBSD, NetBSD, RHEL, CentOS, Fedora, Solaris, SuSE, Gentoo, OpenBSD. That said, it's most widely deployed on Linux distributions based on either Debian or Red Hat, so you'll find the most resources and support if you can choose something in one of those two families (including CentOS, Fedora, and Ubuntu). The [[ManualInstallation]] page documents how to install from source there.
 
Just look at the list of guides below. Pick a distro you're familiar with, check if it has packages for the latest stable RT or install from source.

The best/easiest distribution for RT

People run RT on Arch Linux, Debian, FreeBSD, NetBSD, RHEL, CentOS, Fedora, Solaris, SuSE, Gentoo, OpenBSD. That said, it's most widely deployed on Linux distributions based on either Debian or Red Hat, so you'll find the most resources and support if you can choose something in one of those two families (including CentOS, Fedora, and Ubuntu). The ManualInstallation page documents how to install from source there.
