The differences are usually not between Linux and Unix, but the type of shell you are going to use. On Linux you usually use bash, on different Unix'es it can be ksh or others. So it is a question of which shell you are going to use. It could also be the case, that some type of shell might not be available on the derivate you are going to use.
