The problem I have with the supported versions of Linux is that none of them are free. What's the point then? I'd rather go with Solaris then, which is FREE. And with the new Sun 1Us (<$3K!), it's got the potential to be a Win/Lin killer, especially for Oracle servers, IMHO.

The Guru Labs review of Red Hat 9 notes a major JVM conflict with Oracle 9i: http://www.gurulabs.com/RedHatLinux9-review.html

A web site has an Oracle9i installation guide for other Red Hat versions: http://www.puschitz.com/OracleOnLinux.shtml

Oracle 9iR2 is certified on Red Hat Advanced Server 2.1, SuSE SLES 7, UnitedLinux 1.0 SP1, and RedFlag DC Server 4.0 (China - Hong Kong).

UnitedLinux is available in four distributions: Conectiva Linux Enterprise Edition
SCO Linux Server 4.0
SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 8 (SLES 8)
Turbolinux Enterprise Server 8 Advanced and Basic

Red Hat does offer an Advanced Server developer version ($60): http://www.redhat.com/software/rhel/developer/

The RedHat Oracle web page is:
http://www.redhat.com/oracle/

SuSE offers many links and documents:

The Oracle Technology Network web site for linux is: http://otn.oracle.com/linux

Have Fun :)
