Installation
Guide: Oracle Database 10g on Linux x86: "This is the first in a
series of guides that provide all the steps for installing the major components
of Oracle 10g software on Linux. All three of the certified
English-language distributions of Linux are covered in detail (Asianux is not
covered), and the articles assume that inexpensive Intel x86 hardware is being
used. The articles walk through the process of installation and configuration on
commodity hardware for the purpose of evaluating the major Oracle 10g
products.

The ultimate goal of this series is to walk through
installing and configuring all of the components of a 10g Grid.
Along the way, you will see how to install and configure a single instance
Oracle 10g database (this article), a two-node Oracle RAC 10g
database, all the major components of Oracle Application Server 10g
and Oracle Enterprise Manager 10g Grid Control.

This series will take the approach of offering the
easiest paths, with the fewest number of steps, for accomplishing a task. This
approach often means making configuration choices that would be inappropriate
for anything other than an evaluation. For that reason, this series is not
appropriate for building production-quality environments, nor does it reflect
best practices.

The three Linux distributions certified for Oracle
10g covered in these articles are:

• Red Hat Enterprise Linux  2.1
• Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3
• Novell SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 8

If you are new to Linux and/or Oracle, this first
article is for you. It starts with the basics and walks you through an
installation of Oracle Database 10g from the bare metal up."
An excellent tutorial, including screenshots and step by step instructions,

now available on OTN.
