Just choose whatever you're most comfortable with. Debian probably  
has the advantage of having OTRS packaged in the standard  
repositories. I happen to like CentOS myself, so I just get the new  
rpm every time a new OTRS version is released.

You should be able to use the Fedora Core 4-6 rpm on CentOS 5. We use  
the Fedora Core 1-3 rpm on CentOS 4. And of course the .tar.gz  
version should work on all Linux distributions.
