Best way as explained below is dump into text and copy, if you don't want any manual corrections after. Sent on my BlackBerry®

Check out Ora2Pg: http://ora2pg.darold.net/

It can migrate the schema definition (create table, create view, ...) and the data.

It won't get everything 100% right, but is a very good starting point.

Dumping the Oracle data to text files and then use COPY in Postgres is the best option to copy the data. Make sure you read the manual regarding what text format COPY expects.
