Ben,
This is no problem. They don't need to have different owners. If you
are running Oracle Applications 10.7, and you want to use an Oracle 8i
instance to house it, then you must do this type of install. You will
have 2 Oracle homes, each with it's own database listener and all
associated files. They will be installed in separate directories, by
default. You will need to have a way to setup your environment when you
login to pick the Oracle home you want to use and setup all of the
environment variables correctly.
