The Borders of Infinity (1989) - Miles Errant
Brothers in Arms (1989) - Miles Errant
The Vor Game (1990) - Young Miles
Mirror Dance (1994) - Miles Errant
Cetaganda (1995) - Miles, Mystery and Mayhem
Memory (1996)
Komarr (1998) - Miles in Love
A Civil Campaign (1999) - Miles in Love
Diplomatic Immunity (2002) - Miles, Mutants and Microbes
Winterfair Gifts (2008) - Miles in Love
Cryoburn (2010)

The two books which aren't in any omnibus - "Memory" and "Cryoburn", are both available as standalone novels from Baen.

Unfortunately the books are rather "jumbled up" in the omnibus editions. I don't really know what would be the best reading order. Perhaps:

Young Miles
Miles Errant
Miles, Mystery and Mayhem
Memory
Miles in Love
Miles, Mutants and Microbes
Cryoburn

There's also the "Cordelia's Honor" omnibus, which I'd read immediately after "Young Miles".

Any other suggestions?
A reminder that all these are available on the free Cryoburn CD. That being said, authors and publishers make their money from selling, not giving away, books. I'm all in favour of using the Baen CDs to sample an author's work. But then I buy if I find I want to read more than the first.
