Is this Oracle (DVD) something that can be freely copied and freely given to others??? Or, where would one get a copy? George, Learning methods is good and will server well so long as the circumstances fit the methods being used. A better approach is to learn principles thereby enabling one to create methods as needed to work with any circumstances encountered. -----Original Message----- From: Steven Cain Subject: Installing Oracle @ InstallFest Date: Sat, 27 Sep 2003 11:14:15 -0400 I just got the free DVD from Oracle that installs on Linux. Does anybody have any experience installing this? I keep getting permission errors even after I make the appropriate users and groups. Would anybody be willing to do help install this at the InstallFest? Thanks, Steve Cain
