this may look like a stupid question, but i've been searching for a while on this one.
Does anyone know how to install oracle 10gr2 or later on a nix-system without a graphical installer -> from the command line ?
I do know how to install it by using x-forwarding etc. but i simply want to know if an command-line installation is still possible and if so how to do it.

Yes, very possible. Oracle's knowldgebase has full info on how to do it.
On a debian based system, you just have to add (and configure if you use the commercial one) the official Oracle repository to your /etc/apt/source.list
then just do a standard "sudo apt-get install orabledb" command and you are in business!
