If you cannot upgrade to FreeBSD-stable (ie FreeBSD 3.x) you have to apply some patches to the linux emulator in order to run Oracle on 2.2.x. You need at least the patches in PR/9082 and PR/9232. You don't need threads support, so it should be possible. If you cannot find the HOWTO in the archive, let me know. marcel To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-database" in the body of the message
