Oracle on *nix - Are you fibbing?

jdc114Aug 2 2008 — edited Aug 2 2008

I wanted to install the enterprise version on my Ubuntu/Debian machine so I could get work done at home. I read the doc and, sure it listed a small set of supported *nix OS's:
Asianux 3.0
Oracle Enterprise Linux 4/Oracle VM
Oracle Enterprise Linux 5/Oracle VM
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4/Oracle VM
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5/Oracle VM
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10

but, what the heck I figured. Sure enough the install failed and I installed xe. Here's the the thing though: we run 10g on Solaris/SunOS at work and its not on the list.

I suppose if you're a multi-billion dollar Fortune 50 company Larry'll bend the rules. : )
