I've just reinstalled ours on FC8 - we might well be the first Koha site 
running FC8; previously we were running on FC3.  There is no "best" Linux 
distro for Koha.  You should ask yourself "Which distro am I happiest 
supporting?".  We are a Fedora/Redhat 9 site (my choice) hence we used Fedora 
for our Koha machine.

The dependancy list on the koha site is a start but it is incomplete. Running 
the installer identified other dependances.  See my install log at 
http://www.openhgs.org.uk/it.cgi/koha for a complete list.

http://www.kohadocs.org/ has instructions for installing on several distos.
