The perl script (eventually) runs a oifcfg command, latest from Oracle
is that this command should run from the 10.2 Clusterware home, rather
than the new Grid Infrastructure home, but for some reason it's not.

I was really thinking in terms of when a platform becomes available.
The linux x86-64 release was available very early, and on that basis I
would describe it as mainstream, as compared to say Z/linux or some i
would say more obscure platforms.
Also looking at number of patches available for 11.2.0.1, I'm actually
surprised to see that there are more available for linux x86-64 than
there is for 32bit linux. And a hell of a lot more available for linux
x86-64 than say sparc x86-64. On those metrics I'd definitely describe
linux x86-64 as mainstream.
I wonder if the number of patches available for a platform is more
related to the usage of that platform, rather than the number of bugs
existing within a particular platforms release.

I fear you may be right on this regard, surely not a good state of
affairs though. I was just hoping to find someone else who had done
this upgrade path, I've not heard anybody saying it has gone without a
hitch for them!
cheers,
