Depends on how you define "installation" in a specific distribution.
Could be .rpm or .deb or just a shell script.
This question has nothing to do with Oracle. Please post in appropriate forums.

All it depends on you How you create you executive/execution files.

Say like In windows it is with ".exe" In Linux you can create you own script with the specified extensions(i.e.say like ".sh")
