Hi, |
2 |
I don't have a Oracle RAC on a Gentoo (I have it on a 3 node cluster |
3 |
using RHEL4 instead) It's installation I'm almost sure will be quite |
4 |
straightforward, but it will warn you about networking and other |
5 |
issues because it would not find it's configuration files |
6 |
|
7 |
If you find any problem that you can't solve you can always install |
8 |
app-arch/rpm or use app-arch/rpm2targz ;) |
9 |
|
10 |
If you decide to install it, I would like to hear from you how do you |
11 |
manage to do it and if you had any problem! |
12 |
|
13 |
best regards, |
14 |
