If you're really that inexperienced, I seriously doubt you'll be able to do a
perfect job first up, no matter how much advice you get (no-one could). Pay a
consultant to set the machine up for you is my advice, possibly even hire a
good UNIX admin to work for your company.
Starting an ISP is not something you can do without experience and
understanding - it's a major undertaking and as you noted, if you screw up it
will cost you.
