Oracle seems to change their "official" mind from time to time, but the reality is 
that RedHat 7.1 and 7.3 are the best versions to run with Oracle.  I've had absolutely 
no problems with either version of the OS, and the installation and setup are well 
documented (both by Oracle and third-party sites).

AS2 appears to have been targetted to Oracle, and installs super clean (the least 
amount of effort yet required).  Good deal if you're looking for the top of the line 
configuration.

I've tried installing 8.1.7 (my usual testbed) on RedHat 8.0 this past weekend and 
encountered some problems.  It doesn't like Apache 2.0 in the mix, even though it 
doesn't use it.  It has some problems getting the IP address, but I can fix that 
afterwards.  The tough issues are which JDK (seems like 1.1.8 is the answer) and which 
compat- libs.  I'm plowing through the compat- libs issue right now.  Hopefully it 
will be fully installed and I can give some feedback as to how it runs in a week or so.

thanks,
bruce
