and just to add my 2c worth... if anyone's has sat around waiting for the jvm to be loaded, then they'll know that db creation takes a l-o-n-g time nowadays. A simple solution is to create a basic "empty" database (ie just system, undo and temp) and then close it, zip it up...

Now you have a template rather for creating any number of new databases rather than watching that awful slider bar chugging away.

the 9i installer does a similar thing with "database templates"
