Hi,

We have several Oracle 8.1.6 databases running on Slackware 7 (kernel
2.2.13 , glibc 2.1) boxes and everything is working perfectly. The uptime
of one of the "servers" is almost 300 days.

HIH,
Antonio Belloni

Micheal Hasenstein of SuSE Linux mentioned on the SuSE-Oracle list
"Even the very latest 2.4 kernel is not as stable as 2.2.19.SuSE."


So I'd recommend SuSE 7.1 with a 2.2.19 kernel for Oracle 8.1.7 and SuSE
7.2 with a 2.4.7 kernel for Oracle 9i.
It really depends upon what filesystem and logical volume manager (if
any) you want to use.
They both Linux (RH and SuSE) - and you can add on or upgrade the
components as you desire.
The trick is - if you're going to use it in production - how to remain
in an "Oracle supported configuration" (which is a very fuzzy matter).

hth,

Paul
