Again? Oracle failed to do so with some 9i release, too. You'd suspect some kind of learning mechanism...

The way you demonstrate to be familiar with below, plus the following:
- install the base line - install all pre-seeded db instance flavors you want - upgrade software plus instances - save upgraded instances 'as template'
One reason I don't like seed databases; the other one being the increased download time - a couple of scripts would speed up the total installing process more than this seed db stuff.
