Once upon a time :I was using Debiam but now I am using CentOS on my laptop, web-server and must say I am pretty glad of my choices. It is very stable and customisable.

But why do we talk about cPanel? This article was about LAMP, and anyway… cPanel overrides all the “distro-way” LAMP by compiling a new “things”, not even packages.
Why should this make a point?

Both Debian and CentOS are great distros. Anyway, when we are talking about servers I prefer CentOS. Being recomended by cPanel and used on most virtual private servers, CentOS gained a lot of popularity in the last few years and this has a lot of advantages – a lot of discutions on boards and mailing lists, tutorials, case studies etc.

[root@acasa radical]# yum install yum-presto.noarch

și viteza se îmbunătățește… din Fedora 13 este activ implicit acest plugin de yum… când o să ajungă în CentOS rămâne de văzut…

Probabil e deja clar că prefer CentOS… oricum nu instalez așa ceva decât pentru uz propriu… mie nu îmi place să-mi bat capu’ cu așa ceva…

E treaba sysadminilor….

Go Emil… go…

“So i prefer .deb based distros because .deb installing is definitely faster than .rpm.” <- And how is this relevant?…
A kickstart minimal install of Centos takes around 5-7 minutes. There are good reasons behind Centos having probably the largest install base among all linux distros, if not of all OSes installed on servers.

I agree that you can deploy a Debian server much faster, but when it comes to support for a LAMP server on CentOS is a bigger chance that you find someone who already handled the situation and can give you a starting point.

P.S.
When we’re talking about performance and tuning, I prefer FreeBSD. It rocks!

Debian was my first linux love (now I’m a mac user due to job requirements). If I were to still use linux you can guess what I’d choose.

Hehe… that’s why I love to install and use Debian!

I still use Gentoo
What stop you to use a stage4 minimal generic server and deploy it to various machines ? Yes, you loose time but you gain instead a real flexibility and some performance gain.
An emerge -e world took only 1.2 hours on Core i7 860 CPU with /var/tmp/portage mounted as tmpfs in RAM.

Debian :d I have worked (not much) with both. Debian is far more stable, has better support and runs faster. We have lots of stuff on Debian, from SIP proxy server, H323 gatekeepers til strongswan software and also doing hundreds of ipsec manual keying tunnels. My favorite by far

I agree! I definitely prefer Debian!
