Hi, Some hosts would be willing to install Debian if you asked them. Most hosts don't even display "Linux" anymore.. they just talk about "Redhat". I heard a guy the other day saying "Do you have Redhat servers?". It's unfortunate... but... maybe it is a good thing to boost Linux's popularity with a company that seems to be doing Linux good, in general.
Anyway... it depends what kind of hosting you want. If you want cheapo stuff go to http://www.hostsearch.com or others to find one. You could go offshore with companies such as: http://www.zentek-international.com/ which I know will install Debian. So depending on what you want, where you want it, etc. there are certainly options for you.
