I am ordering another web server from the datacentre which will be loaded with Debian to start but I will then debootstrap Ubuntu server onto it using this guide:
http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/install/i386/apds03.html
then installing the lamp package.

The server will be used for Apache, Php and MySQL only, I'll use ssmtp for outgoing email to one of email servers.

What I need to know, should I use standard i386 or AMD64 version of the server?

Does anyone know of problems with LAMP server (6.06.1). The CPU in the server will be an AMD64 3200+.

I'm using the 6.06 amd64 lamp install on an opteron 248 machine. After lots of testing, this is now a production machine exposed to the internet, and I haven't had any issues at all.
