If the vendor is going to be thorough enough to really tell you what works, there shouldn't be a big difficulty for them to do a standard install. Otherwise, you might get enough of a test for "yes it boots ok and runs X" but they might not test something else that could cause problems (does video acceleration work properly? are there any weird interrupt storms? does network work? is it slower than it should be? etc.) Ideally I'd recommend buying from somewhere that you can return the hardware if there's a problem which stops you from using it, and do your own tests. -- Please keep replies on the mailing list.
