If you're new to installing Moodle on Linux, Falko has long maintained a great howto on setting up Ubuntu as a LAMP server at http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect-server-ubuntu8.04-lts. I've used this for several production Moodle servers with success. Just don't do the parts you don't need. I'd recommend steps 1-11 except for 9 for everyone. Then, php, mysql, ftp, and whatever else you'd like.
Alternatively, just do a basic Ubuntu install and let the installer create the LAMP stack. I just like to know what've I've actually done so I can retrace things later if problems occur.
Once your LAMP server is working, do a default install of Moodle.
Falko updates this for new Ubuntu releases but I tend to want stability over the latest and greatest, so this is a good place to start if you're not yet a Linux enthusiast.
