Hi Ray,
I have Oracle 8.1.7 and 9.0.1 running on an Suse 7.2 box configured with
ext3 file systems. Both instances are working properly and without major
issues.
Suse 7.2 comes along with a variety of file systems , including ReiserFS ,
ext3 , ext2 , Aix“s JFS and other that I can“t recall now.
Regards,
Antonio Belloni

Please respond to

Not on the oracle topic:
RH is pretty insecure out of the box. If you don't take steps
to lock it down the machine will be compromised within the hour in
our experience. There are some good web pages out on the steps
that need to be taken:
http://www.sans.org/newlook/projects/bastille_linux.htm
http://www.sci.sdsu.edu/People/Bill/basic_sec.html
I'd suggest the use of iptables:

That said, I have a screaming 8.1.7.4 server running on RH 7.1. I am
unhappy with the oracle support matrix for RH, however. It seems to
have stalled a 7.1. I'm thinking of giving SuSE 7.2 a run since it is
supported, hoping the ext3 filesystem is there. RH7.1 only has ext2.
The seemed to be pushing the RH advanced server with 9i, which seems like
a real Redmond, WA thing.
