Sure i've hit the undo management bug that wiped out my SAND box
database just last week, db got hung up, had to shutdown abort and then
redo logs/undo management tablespace couldnt be mounted so it was
screwed.
Sorry but I've been an oracle dba since version 5 almost 10 years ago
and my personal opinion is i'd never put a x.0 version of oracle in
production mode before its been out for 12 months.
