Which distribution/version is best to install please?

I saw Amahi a few years ago when it was Fedora based but never went for it. Now I have a HP proliant Microserver with 3TB of storage to use, I thought i would revisit Amahi.

I have downloaded the following:

Fedora 14
Ubuntu 12.04 32 Bit
Ubuntu 12.04 64 Bit
Ubuntu Server 1204 64 Bit

Now, I want to install Amahi to run as a file server, be able to VNC on to it, download torrents, use Sickbeard etc, use VPN, run as a media server and so on.

Which version will work best/be easiest to do? The installer says ubuntu, but is 64 bit ready? I have 8GB of Ram on my server.

Many thanks

Ubuntu 12.04 is our latest officially supported OS for Amahi. We will begin work on Fedora 17 soon as well. Both 32- and 64-bit are supported as well.

Fedora 14 will receive no further updates or app releases. We are supporting it only for maintenance.

Many thanks. Will all the features i mentioned work with 64 bit ubuntu?

Yes, there is no difference in Amahi versions for 32- and 64-bit. They all have the same capability.
