Oracle 11gR2 on Fedora 12…

I had a play around yesterday and installed Oracle 11gR2 on Fedora 12:

Fedora 12 (F12) Installation
Oracle Database 11g Release 2 (11.2) Installation On Fedora 12 (F12)

I think this might be the last time I install Oracle on Fedora. Why? For two reasons:

When I first started doing installs on Red Hat 7 (pre Enterprise Linux) it [...]

Fedora 11 and Oracle 11g…

It’s that time again where I check to see if Oracle installs on the latest version of Fedora. The result once again is yes, it does. The main website has the links to the articles. I would add links here only the browser on this internet cafe machine doesn’t support cut & pates.
When [...]

Fedora 10 and Oracle 11gR1…

I like to meddle with Fedora from time to time, just so I can see what’s coming round the corner in RHEL. I read recently that Fedora 11 will be the base for RHEL6, which means we are about 6 months away from seeing what the future of RHEL is going to be…
Much as I [...]

Fedora 9 and Oracle 11g…

I wrote a couple of articles against a beta version of Fedora 9 before I went on holiday. I did a run through against the final release of Fedora 9 today and they seem fine, so here they are:

Fedora 9 (F9) Installation
Oracle Database 11g On Fedora 9 (F9)

The installation process doesn’t give you the option [...]

Fedora 8 and Oracle 11g…

My Fedora 8 escapades were delayed by my OpenWorld experience, but better late than never.

Fedora 8 (F8) Installation
Oracle 11g On Fedora 8 (F8)

The first article is a run through of a fairly basic Fedora 8 install, showing what it looks like. The second is the Oracle install guide in my normal format. There’s one little [...]

Fedora 7…

I’ve just put some images of a Fedora 7 installation onto the website.
This article slipped out a little early, so sorry if you tried to read it and found half of the images missing.
When I get a chance I’ll try an Oracle installation on it.

StumbleUpon and Fedora 7…

Is SumbleUpon really worth $75 million?
I suppose the answer to that is yes, since eBay have just bought them for that figure. StumbleUpon claim 23 million regular users, of which I’m one, but if most of the other users are like me, they just click on a single toolbar button when they get bored. I [...]

Fedora Core 5 is out…

I can now finish off a couple of draft articles…

Ubuntu and Fedora Core 5 (Test 2)…

As always, I’ve been having a little scout round at whats going on in the Linux world at the moment. I’m pretty happy with CentOS 4, but it doesn’t do any harm to have a play. Here are some thoughts after a quick play with Ubuntu and Fedora Core 5 (Test 2).
Ubuntu
The recent hype about [...]
