i'm planning on using KnoppMyth.  i used it for my proof-of-concept
box and it installed without any problems.  aside from minor setup
issues (and my poor hardware) 'it worked out of the box'.
if i had a bit more Linux experience i would go with Gentoo; only
because i like the idea of building for the hardware you have and for
performance.
but right now i just want a box that works, so i'll stick with KnoppMyth. :)
