I'm going to try mandrake 9.0, which came out this week, with some 8i and 9i this week. I'll post a followup. Mandrake is basically rh with a better installer, actually one of the best installers I've seen ever! No ora support, just for fun.

I've had absolutely no problems with either version of the OS, and the installation and setup are well documented (both by Oracle and third-party sites).

It has some problems getting the IP address, but I can fix that afterwards. The tough issues are which JDK (seems like 1.1.8 is the answer) and which compat- libs. I'm plowing through the compat- libs issue right now. Hopefully it will be fully installed and I can give some feedback as to how it runs in a week or so.
