I am a newuser of linux.I want to do allprogrammes on linux.But I cant find how to install oracle 9i linux version on y RHEL4.

plz help me immidiately as soon as possible.

You should try Google first. The second hit for a search of "oracle linux" is http://www.puschitz.com/OracleOnLinux.shtml which is a good site. I've used it myself for installing Oracle 8i, 9i and 10 g on different distros (Slackware, Fedora and Redhat).

That is a good site. The content helped me setup 10g on RHEL3. Bumpy ride though, I would not do it again. I think it's best to just get a supported platform .

Speaking of supported platforms, Oracle 9i should be supported on RHEL4 is it not? It should just be a matter of getting the installation material onto the box and running the setup program. It launches a java instanace (that it ships with - so no worries there) and OUI runs inside that. Follow the prompts and OUI will tell you if Oracle cannot be installed, or if kernel options need tweaking. (It won't tell you how to do it though - so we'll expect to be hearing from you ).
