Personally, I have found that Mandrake is one of the easiest, and from what I 
understand, the auto install is very easy.

But to be fair, I would suspect that all major commercial distros  are easy to 
install. I have not installed debian in a very long time, but I thought it 
was a pain in comparision.

So it comes down to what you want to run.
