Installation Oracle on Suse Linux Enterprise 10
How neat is Suse!
I downloaded the DVD SLES10 on Novell.com. At the installation time, appart from Gnome, Development, X Window, there are a few new categories. One of them is called Oracle Database, and guess what, it installs all what I needed for Oracle. It creates an oracle account, with oinstall as primary group and dba as secondary group, it sets usefull things like ORACLE_HOME.
Ok, let's unlock the account
Ok, let's install. SLES10 is not recognized as a certified OS yet. The DISPLAY thing has to be manually set too.
this is one of the friendliest installation I have ever made...

Or you can change a list of supported OS's in the distribution in one file - don't remeber which one. Let me know if interested and couldn't find it.
yes, if you install from a read-writable media, you should be able to edit install/oraparam.ini
thanks for your comment
Yep, this one. And for readonly media it's possible to use option "-paramFile".
wow, that sounds awesome... can some one provide a screenshot of that installation screen? I want to see it with my own eye (-:
Heh... Right. I remember that installing 8i and 9i on Suse 7 Pro wasn't that friendly.
Anyway - still running there happily! :)
