Re: Oracle Database on a notebook

Should work without problem, did it myself, notebook/laptop with a pc-mcia card, not connected to any network . The only thing you may want to do is leave the creation of the starter database. This will configure sqlnet for that starter database and the configuration files might be incorrect for a local install.
