Hey there! For your Minecraft server, Linux would be a solid choice. You can run it smoothly on the hardware you have. If you're comfortable with it, Windows works too, but Linux offers better performance and stability for servers. Just make sure you install the right server software like XORSA or Minecraft Server.

You could try either option. Using Linux might boost performance and available memory. The steps will mostly be the same across both systems. Get the 64-bit Java, install the MC server jar, configure it, and start it. Make sure to send your ports correctly. https://www.linode.com/docs/game-servers...or-debian/

Linux is suggested, yet any operating system works fine. A 2600 remains capable of handling Windows smoothly.

Consider trying different Linux distributions based on your needs. Lightweight options like LiteOS or Xubuntu are great for beginners, while more robust choices like Ubuntu or Fedora offer extensive support and features. Choose one that matches your hardware and goals.

This Ubuntu server runs without a graphical interface to conserve resources.

For beginners, Debian is a better choice than Ubuntu Server. Focus on basic system tools to avoid resource-heavy GUIs. ~Breadpudding
