I'd say go for 10 or 11. http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/linux/install/index.html
A read throught the 9i and 10i new features guides in the docs may be worthwhile. Also, if the terms LMT and DMT don't really light any bulbs, google for them. There's some decent blogs out there these days too. Don't be afraid to revel in newbietude: http://www.dbaoracle.net/readme-cdos.htm
And the concepts guide is mandatory, no matter how much experience you have.
