I just came across Centos (Community Enterprise Operating System - http://www.centos.org/) It came with mysql as well. Hence my question here, does anyone guru here using this OS before for production ? Success story?

Centos is a handy beast. It is a straight copy of RedHat Enterprise Linux with all references to RedHat removed. RH have not been very happy about it, but they have to live with it as Linux is GPL (though their own copyright materials are not, hence the need for their removal). If you don't want or need RH's support (e.g. RHN) for your server (e.g. for development rather than production servers), Centos is a cheaper route to get almost exactly the same thing. Centos provide what amounts to their own version of RHN, so you're not left entirely to your own devices.
