I am installing Gentoo Linux on my dual Opteron server.
I have been running Gentoo on it for awhile and it has worked great.

You could also try XFCE4 for your desktop environment. It is supposed to 
be pretty lean. I would give it a try on my setup, but I am in the 
process of setting it up as a server and removing all desktop software.
At this time it won't even have Xfree on it.

If you can download the ISO(s) to your other Box and install whatsoever 
you want. Then enjoy.

I'm a Mac user the rest of the time. So that's my spin. :)

HTH.
