Debian Etch.

[MadHag]

Installed DA last night and I must admit I am well happy, functionality is great. Is there anything it can't do?

Any known problems with Etch that I should know about? Does anything break it?

There should be no problems at all

Since DA works with Debian can it be run on Ubuntu ?

Apparently so, if you look at this link it's possible to choose Ubuntu and DA.

I could only have Debian, CentOs or FreeBSD with mine though, I would have prefered Ubuntu, it's sweet

I don't see the advantage of running Ubuntu Server over Debian.

There shouldn't be any difference between a Ubuntu Server install and a Debian Server install.

There may or may not be some version differences, but don't forget that DirectAdmin installs it's own complete hosting stack anyway.

Some people consider Ubuntu easier to install, though.
