Answer 4

The choice of a distribution kit is determined mainly by the ability to work independently, find errors and redo for the twentieth time what was done incorrectly the first nineteen... linuxoid". In such a beginning, there is nothing to worry about - if at some point there is a desire to "get under the hood". If it does not arise - well, it happens, replenish the army of "under-Linuxoids" who work hard in the console (and even this is not a big deal - but they know the options of the GUI configurators by heart :D)
If there is such a skill to some extent - then centos, debian and other package distributions of a corporate plan - already without whistles and tweeters, with a minimalist hum or without it at all. It will not give detailed knowledge about how Linux works or, for example, how and why the kernel is rebuilt - but this level of knowledge is often not needed - you can usually install, start the service, configure it without it.
If there is enough such skill (as well as heaps of free time) and you want to collect "cogs" - gent (and its derivatives), arch, slack, LFS. The entry threshold is raised to the maximum, the deployment speed of any service is minimal - but there will definitely be knowledge about everything - simply because nothing will work without it.

Install debian and use google if you have any problems.
