Hi Guys!

Ok... so I am about done with my lil site and am looking at getting onto a VPS.

A few here have suggested Linode and I would like to have a play with their Linode 1GB system.

So... there seems to be an overwhelming array of scripts out there... the most is 182 scripts for Ubuntu!

Would anyone have any suggestions what I could use that would create a robust solution for my website?

Would Ubuntu be a good one? Which one if!? CentOs maybe?

What are those of you here who are with Linode using yourselves?

Any tips and suggestions to get a beginner like me get a basic site going smoothly? Any pitfalls to watch out for?

Many thanks guys!

My suggestion is to use the last LTS (long term support) version of Ubuntu, right now is 12.04. The documentation in Linode is very good, follow along with their "Getting started" tutorial and you should be fine.
