I just ordered a cloud server instance.

Lots of images available. They've got Fedora, CentOS, redHat, debian... and others I've never heard of

I think I'll choose Fedora 14 (Laughlin).

I've got a different server running Fedora and I like that it comes with YUM and all the repo's I need for all the little fancy modules I'm running

Sound good?

For Oracle, the best option will be RedHat Linux. Fedora is something you play with on your desktop.

RedHat Linux is officially supported and can easily be convert to OEL (Oracle Enterprise Linux) if you would rather buy Linux support from Oracle.
