You see, I've isolated clusters that have been We've used CentOS. Great. No problems. Also toyed with Red Hat Enterprise in the past. Good too but the packages tend to be older. Some would argue that's the point so that one gets a stable system but sometimes it is irritating. Also you need to pay for the Licenses. I've had an OK experience with Fedora too.
