I'd say installing 9.2 Installation under linux can be tricky anyway. No
matter if certified or not.

Installing 10g under 10oss went quite smooth in my case.
I think the only showstopper was a language setting which let the
installer crash during one special installation step.

   http://www.gesinet.it/oracle/oracle10gR2onSUSE.html -> 10g
   http://www.oracle-base.com/articles/linux/ArticlesLinux.php -> fedora

I can also remember some libcwait issues with 9.2.0, where libcwait.so
had to be compiled and preloaded or sth like that (on sles9, too). I
guess i found the solution on novell.com
