2Gb is not a VLDB for Oracle - in fact, its smaller than any of the databases we run here. Your not getting to VLDB until you start talking about terrabytes

Just create the database in the normal way - either using dbca or my preferred method, via scripts you create by hand. The oracle docs have examples you can use as a base starting point.
