Linux certification question

Does anybody know which Linux distribution is best to prepare for LPIC-1 and LPIC-2 exams?

There is a thread here about Linux study group, but didn't find the answer. Some mention Ubuntu, but maybe you can comment. thanks

I would like to know this as well.

I haven't done this exam, however I've heard that either debian or redhat (FC) were pretty good for the exam. However as the exams are vendor neutral, it really should matter, should it?

If i am not mistaken they ask questions about both rpm and dpkg package management systems.

So ideally you should get familiar with both by using debian/ubuntu and redhat/centos.

Other than the package management I cant remember anything else that was distro specific.

Do one Debian-based (Mint/Ubuntu/Debian) and one Red Hat-based (Red Hat, CentOS, Fedora).
