Re: Developer 6i Install on Linux

[Quoted] I've downloaded the software from technet.oracle.com. I want to untar or uncompress the file but I can't find a "README" or install guide. The only installation instructions I've located assume that you are installing it from a CD which will invoke an Autorun. Have you successfully installed? I am running Red Hat 6.2 with Kernel 2.2.14-5.0. To run this Open Motif do I need to reconfigure the OS or Kernel or can I run this right out of the box. Right now I use Gnome [Quoted] with an X window, do I need more GUI than this or am I sufficient. [Quoted] What is the problem you are having with Reports? Is it something I [Quoted] should be leary of? Right now I have 8i Enterprise Server installed on the machine that I want to place Developer 6i, will this cause a conflict? Maybe I should just go out an buy NT? OUCH!!!! $$$$$$
