Oracle-base.com recently published instructions for installing the
Oracle Application Server 10g on Fedora Core 2 Linux.
Core 2 uses the new 2.6 kernel which handles memory differently than
previous kernels and users have had problems installing Oracle products
for testing.
Detailed instructions are here:
http://www.oracle-base.com/Index.php
The instructions detail installing a middle tier. You can not
install the infrastructure tier unless you install the metadata
repository in a current database. This is because the Database
Configuration Assistant can not create the 9i database on Core 2 to
support the metadata repository.
Also available on oracle-base.com is the instructions for installing
the Oracle Database 10g on Fedora Core 2.
I have tested both and they work well. However, after
installing the 10d database you must undo the trick to set
DISABLE_HUGETLBFS=1 or the web based OEM will not function correctly.
After installing the database:
cd $ORACLE_HOME/bin
rm oracle
mv oracle.bin oracle
Then add the below item to the env script for the oracle user;
export DISABLE_HUGETLBFS=1
Now OEM will work properly.
Remember, Oracle does not support it's products on Fedora Core
Linux.
