I am agree with Ante in all his points, i am using Ferora and Ubuntu,RHEL
but i want inform you Linux is ONE (Kernel) and no any system in the world
wide dose not has bugs also i tested LVM it worked fine with me.
may your server hardware not certified with Linux or may be have some issues
with server hardware ...etc
my opinion Fedora & Ubuntu both of them best Linux releases in the world
wide,anyway i want say LINUX IS KING OF SERVERS
