Given what you get with cinelerra, it doesn't seem outrageous to reserve
an entire OS install for it.
That idea is so good, that someone has already done it. And made that OS
distro a live CD, so you can try it without an installation. Well, it's not
exactly an entire OS for Cinelerra alone, but for all kinds of
publishing-type of applications. Cinelerra included, of course.

That is how I started off with Cinelerra. And also learned about other tools,
which are included as well.
My preference, as usual, is Fedora, 64-bit. It has a lot of annoying
little bugs that I've worked through. But isn't that the joy of it
though? (not really)
Once up and running, Cinelerra is solid, with the usual caveat that you
have to know what works and what doesn't to get usable content out of it.
If you've got VMware installed, I've got a couple of Fedora VMware virtual
machines built fully configured with a working version of Cinelerra that
are available to download.
