What? Oracle _8.5_ ?? I bet the Oracle guys would love to get their hands on version 8.5, it will save them lots of work :) If you mean Oracle8 (8.0), then it is indeed for purchase for Linux, and runs well (you'd have to change some process limits if you run a system with heavy-load) on RedHat,

Hiya Something is amiss here. VMWare guest OS'es are installed on a file residing on the linux fs, not on their own partition. This means that your comment about being able to boot Win2k outside of VMWare doesn't really apply - you'll still need to install it twice if you want to use it twice. Ho

Woops, my bad. Was it in the beta build as well? Anyhow, it probably won't work. You would have to use 2 different hardware profiles (as your machine running inside VMWare obviously has different 'hardware' then the normal install) - and who knows how Win2k will react to being booted under two s
