What's the best disto for Xen load-balancing cluster?

I'm fairly new to Linux and want to have someone install Xen for me, and so I want the easiest to install Xen and most stable distro for this. I would've guessed Ubuntu SE 10.10 because of the popular Ubuntu, but I read a few years ago that Debian Sarge and Ferdora 3, or 4 I forgot, are the distros that support the most stable Xen.

Also, I'd like to use something Ubuntu One.

What do you suggest?

Xen is actively supported by http://slackbuilds.org/repository/13.1/system/xen/ and they have all the docs and scripts for a Slackware domU.

Opensuse should also be a good choice as Novell are behind xenlinux, while Ubuntu should provide excellent community support, but I suggest posting in their forums. For advanced users, Arch provides a good wiki. I am not informed about Debian, while CentOS surely supports Xen.
