PLEASE rethink your decision about installing on Fedora.
"The Fedora Project is an open source project sponsored by Red Hat and supported by the Fedora community. It is also a proving ground for new technology that may eventually make its way into Red Hat products. "
That second statement is equivalent to saying Fedora is a public beta. And I have found that there are a number of security and stability issues.
If you need to stay 'free', use WhiteBox Linux, CentOS or TaoLinux which are clones of RedHat EL 3 (one of the certified Linuxes)
IN any case, Google on "Install Oracle Linux" - the first to come up is Werner Puschitz' page and that is THE definitive install page. If he doesn't list the Oracle-Linux combo, it's probably not worth trying.
