Today I gave a shot to install `Oracle Linux
|
|||
|
<http://www.oracle.com/us/technologies/linux/overview/index.html>`_. I thought I could easily
|
|||
|
install an Oracle DBA on it. Well, I was naive.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
As only the 5.2 version is supported by XenServer 5.5, I downloaded that version of Oracle Linux.
|
|||
|
Installing it was surprisingly fast and easy, it asked almost nothing, and booted without any
|
|||
|
problems.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
After this came the DBA, 10.2, which bloated an error message in my face saying that this is an
|
|||
|
unsupported version of Linux. Bah.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Is it only me, or is it really strange that Oracle doesn’t support their own distro?
