Oracle linux dvd

Filed under: — andrejk @ 10:23 pm

Oracle just released a dvd which will let you try Oracle on Linux (Red Hat and SuSE). It uses vmware, so you can run linux on your window machine. Somehow i feel a solution based on something like knoppix would have been better, but it’s nice to see Oracle’s ongoing support for Linux.

    This would be great if the download actually worked. If you try to access either package you get a “page not found” error and there seems to be little help available on the Oracle web site.

    I wasn’t too fond of using Red Hat so I tried and tried installing it on Debian Linux.

    Finally succeeded.

    ... unfortunalty the how to is in German, but the code is the code. I will work on translating it to english soon.
