Nice. For me though I need something as simple as possible, im not huge on
Linux and with all the CCIE, I dont want to spend my time learning linux as
apposed to the labs. ?:-)

Slackware is my preferred choice and my distro on my main box although I
will admit Ubuntu seems to have the better of my "works out of the box"
sentiments. RedHat used to be my third fav together with SuSE until I got
sick of RPM and turned to the power of apt-get and pkg. But in the end,
just as long Dynamips/GNS3 runs nicely, any distro will be fine ;-).

I would agree with Charles. ?Debian is well maintained and very stable.

If you like Ubuntu but not all the fluff you could always go straight

debian. I have both the IE Vol2 dynamips lab and the IPE Vol11 (ver 4)

(with real switches) running on debian with no issues.

This is a pretty good distro with everything built in. Use iso magic to add

your iso and net and you have a bootable cd.
