Being able to get updates for 60 days, you could give it a try. Historically I'm only working with SLES, so I just know this works most of the time ;-)

no, i'm not married to debian, nor am i forced to use it. however, debian
is the distri i'm most familiar with and about which i know the most.

oldstable support runs out in about 2 years or so, there's plenty of time
i guess (support for the h/w runs out before that).

i could and will. need to find some (old) h/w for test setups first.
i don't want to play around too much with this setup. the filesystems
provided by it are kind of important and cause trouble (and a lot of work)
if they go missing... else there'd be no need for a ha setup.
