Arul,
Since Ubuntu is a Debian-based distribution, you'll need to "fix" some stuff
before running the installer, and you'll need to run with the -ignoreSysPreReqs
option. If you do a Google search for "oracle on ubuntu 7.10", you get lots of
hits.

Subject: Re: Which Linux??
No question, CentOS is a good choice.
But, it does not work on the Dell Vostro 200 desktops. CentOS 4/5 does not have
the drivers (I believe) for the new SATA in Vostro and I couldn't get to
install... at the moment it seems to me ubuntu is the only choice.
Are there any issues in installing Oracle10g/11g on ubuntu?
thanks,
Arul

Hi,
Many thanks for the responses. It seems that the out right winner was Centos!
So . . . just installed it!
Thank you to all.

People,
I am thinking of running at 10/11g on a FREE Linux. I know the amount of
patches you need to stabilise Oracle and get it running can be an issue, SO .
. .Of the many flavours out there, which do you consider the best and most
stable? I've used Solaris and HP-UX for many years, so know my way around UNIX
well.
Your thoughts please. . .
