My advice would be to stick to distributions derived from RedHat (i.e. Fedora, RHEL, CentOS, Scientific Linux) or Ubuntu, simply because we will go out of our way to ensure that the binary Phenix installers work on these. (They also have Coot binaries.) That doesn't mean other distributions are necessarily unsuitable, but the software support may be patchier.</div>
