I would use FreeBSD (and I do use FreeBSD for bacula, now bareos backup server and storage hosts), it has really small "footprint", and it is quite widespread.
Incidentally, I was using bacula for very long time, but recently I switched to bacula's fork: bareos. You may want to consider the differences before you finalized everything in stone.

Hi Valeri,
Thanks for this. I haven't looked at FreeBSD since the 1990's or there abouts, but I'll give it a look.
I'm also looking at lubuntu, but was hoping that there was a lcentos. We tend to like what we're used to.
I'd be interested in your views on the differences between bacula and Bareos. I do have one Bareos storeage device but that's just in Bacula compat mode.
