If you want to install 11g, I'd recommend you get CentOS 5.

You can then just follow the Oracle install instructions for RH Enterprise 5 (which CentOS is a clone of). No hassles, no need to get obscure older libraries, create symlinks to them etc.

Have a look here: http://wiki.oracle.com/page/Installing+Oracle+on+CentOS
