I'm running 9iR2 right now.

I hacked my way though the install.  It was pretty nasty.

There are instructions for installing it on Redhat Enterprise Linux 3 at
http://www.puschitz.com that allegedly work on Fedora Core 1.

I did it differently though.  Try those instructions first though.  If you
can't get it working that way,  I'll send you my procedure.
