All you need from the Linux side for the masters is a knowledge of simple Unix 
commands like cp and possibly some vi.  There should never be a need to lose

and the URL for the study is? And the suggestion to use Linux is on
what Oracle corp site? Oracle runs on the platform you wish to run it

if the masters cert worries about os specific things like kernel
parameters and relinking Oracle to take advantage of various options
then I'll lose the respect I have for it. That is or should be
