I've had the chance to install and run Oracle 10g on WhiteBox. It's good for testing stuff. But Oracle have only "certified" their RDBMS on RH and Suse, so using Oracle on other distros is "unsupported" and at your own risk. If you're paying Oracle for support, might as well supplement that with an RHEL or Suse support.
