start with linux... chosse ONE distribution and stuck with it! after getting experience you can switch to a full unix system.

for linux have a look at "ubuntu" or as more experienced user "gentoo".
for unix maybe go for "sun solaris". it's well documented (docs.sun.com) and available for x86.

good luck
